Tip!
The spices in this dish go nicely with the rich lamb meat. But it's perfectly fine to use beef or pork. Consider mixing different kinds of meat. Use marrow bone and pork spare ribs that are less lean than for example roast beef or pork roast. Also, you can substitute other hearty greens for the bok choy.
