SuggestionI also like to accompany this recipe with Indian-style sautéed sweet peppers or with cumin potatoes or potatoes with sesame seeds
If you like a stronger flavor, I recommend you add a little hot pepper sliced crosswise, and sauté it with the lamb.
You can substitute Thai sweet basil for traditional sweet basil, and bring out the freshness of the dish by adding a little lime juice or zest during the marinade.
