TIPS

- Bright Finish: Lemon balances richness without overpowering lamb.
- Bone Choice: Neck bones, shanks or mixed cuts all yield flavourful broth.
VARIATIONS
- Root Swap: Use parsnip or swede instead of turnip for sweeter broth.
- Herbal Shift: Thyme or bay leaf can replace rosemary for softer aromatics.
- Grain Body: Add 2 tablespoons cooked barley or lentils for substance.
- Low Sodium: Skip salt and rely on herbs and lemon to lift flavour.
- Protein Boost: Shred lamb meat from the bones and stir it back into the soup.
