he lamb meat is a source of animal proteins balanced in indispensable amino acids and is characterised by a significant provision of iron, zinc and vitamins, in particular B12 and PP. Lipids : there are some cuts which have a moderate content in lipids (like the leg, 9 %), however, the lamb is an energising meat with a value of 15%. Please pay attention to this fact : Before saying that the lamb is too fat, we have to make some comparisons : - Take a portion of 100 g saddle of roast lamb which has a lipid content of 16 g. It has no more lipids than 70 g brioche, 60 g cheese crackers, 60 g chouquettes, 40 g butter puff pastry...If you serve it with green beans, flageolets, semolina, chickpeas ....., your farm lamb of Quercy will enhance your meals greatly.
