  1. Karoo Lamb Neck Soup
    Slow-cooked Karoo lamb neck soup with rich broth, tender meat, chunky vegetables, and deep farmhouse flavour. Proper comforting winter food, the BlixSam way.
    Serves: 4
    🛒 Ingredients
    800 g lamb neck, bone-in
    3 tbsp oil
    1 large onion, finely chopped
    1 leek, sliced
    2 carrots, diced
    2 potatoes, cubed
    2 tbsp flour
    6 cups lamb or beef stock
    BlixSam Flavour Layer
    1 tsp BlixSam Steakhouse Spice
    1 tsp BlixSam Arm Maat Spice
    ½ tsp BlixSam Bazaar Kerrie
    1 tsp dried thyme
    1 bay leaf
    Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
    👨‍🍳 Method
    1. Build the flavour foundation
    Dust the lamb neck lightly with the flour.
    Heat the oil in a heavy pot and brown the lamb well on all sides.
    While browning, sprinkle over the BlixSam Steakhouse Spice so it blooms directly into the oil and meat. This is where the deep flavour starts.
    Remove the lamb and set aside.
    2. Layer the vegetables
    In the same pot, add the onion, leek and carrots.
    Add the BlixSam Arm Maat Spice and cook for 2–3 minutes, allowing the spices to bloom with the vegetables.
    Stir in the BlixSam Bazaar Kerrie for gentle warmth and rich Karoo colour.
    3. Slow-cook the magic
    Return the lamb neck to the pot.
    Add the potatoes, thyme, bay leaf and stock.
    Bring to a gentle simmer, cover partially and cook over low heat for 2½–3 hours, or until the lamb is fall-apart tender.
    4. Finish the soup
    Carefully remove the bones and shred the lamb back into the soup.
    Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper.
    For an even richer farmhouse texture, lightly mash a few potato pieces into the broth before serving.
