Aromatic Yemeni Baked Lamb Fritters

Assemble the ingredients: lamb, water, yogurt, black pepper, paprika, onion, chili.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the lamb and cook until baked.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Yemeni flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Yemeni accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
