Legend has it that this "Sikandari Raan" was first prepared for Alexander the Great’s wedding feast when he married Roxanne, daughter of Oxyartes, a king of the Hindu Kush region, which Alexander (or Sikandar as he was known in India) had just conquered. This special leg of lamb preparation was also eaten at the battlefield banquet held to celebrate the legendary friendship of the great conqueror with King Paurava of Takshila. Ever since, eating raan has become a symbol of friendship and binding ties.
Our top grade spices are expertly sourced, freshly-ground, roasted and blended in small artisanal batches. Packed in our new larger tins for our grill and roast blends.
Better than a take away
We saw other reviews and thought we would try it, one leg of lamb, prepaired as instructions. It tasted fantastic a big yes from our family.
Very tasty.
When I try it again I think I’ll cook it lower and slower. At 180 it was a little dry (probably my oven!).
I did this with the biryani. Absolutely fantastic again. Almost not enough for 4 it was that good. I’ve always found biryani to be mild and fairly bland. No so this biryani!
Loved how the Roast Lamb Raan lent a new aspect to our Sunday Roast. Follow the recipe and you end up with a great tasting Lamb joint that made our Sunday lunch so nice. Highly recommended.
Used the spices on a leg of lamb
Great tasting
Meat was beautiful and tender
I would buy these spices again
