About Homemade lamb ragu

Homemade Lamb Ragu is a hearty and flavorful dish rooted in Italian cuisine, known for its rich, slow-simmered sauce. This recipe features tender ground lamb, garlic, onions, tomatoes, red wine, and aromatic herbs like rosemary and thyme. Often served over pasta or polenta, the dish combines comforting textures with bold, savory flavors. Lamb provides high-quality protein, essential vitamins like B12, and minerals like zinc and iron. The tomatoes contribute vitamin C and antioxidants, while herbs elevate nutritional value with their anti-inflammatory properties. However, this dish can be higher in fat, especially saturated fat from lamb, depending on the preparation. Opting for lean cuts, controlling portion sizes, or pairing it with whole-grain pasta and a side of leafy greens can enhance its overall health benefits. A classic comfort food, Homemade Lamb Ragu balances indulgence with the nutrients to fuel your day.
