I've a load of fat trimmed off a kilo of lamb meat. Can someone thrifty suggest a recipe to use this? A soup?

I know exactly what you mean. You dont want to eat the fat, you want it to flavor a type of soup you can make with it. Try a nice lentil soup or even better, simmer your greens in it, like collard or musturd greens.I've a load of fat trimmed off a kilo of lamb meat. Can someone thrifty suggest a recipe to use this?

You could use it to grease a pan when you're frying something else in the future. Report Abuse

ugghhh, lamb fat soup? That would be foul.





It's really unhealthy, lamb fat has a very strong taste to it and wouldn't be good for frying stuff and unless you live in a third world country, you don't ned extra fat in your diet.





I appreciate the thriftiness aspect of your question, and if it were duck or pork or beef fat I may have some suggestions, but really, just throw it away.





Keaneva, lard is made from pork fat...
You can melt the oil by pan-frying and save the oil for cooking.


Though the food will taste a bit weirder, but it will taste quite good if you add a little lemon juice to get rid of the lamb smell.
Why make a FAT soup? It would be greasy and just plain nasty.......I guess they used to use this lamb fat to grease wagon wheels or make oil lamps......just give it to the dogs or throw it out.......would you recycle bones too?
Lamb fat gets yucky super quick. I would suggest throwing it out. Points for you trying to be thrifty. But it is not worth it when dealing with lamb fat.
You could melt down the fat to make lard for soap - or greasing pans.
