Persian Lamb & Rhubarb Stew

This month's recipe is a real celebration of spring, Persian style! This rich and fragrant stew is typical of many Persian dishes, being made with lots of fresh herbs and a delicious sweet/sour flavour profile (in this case, using rhubarb). It's an unusual combination but tastes fantastic together with some buttery rice and a fresh crunchy salad on the side.
