We drop the word flavor around here unabashedly. And these lamb wraps are pretty high on our flavor dial. The lamb’s bursting with spices and herbs and is served with a raita that deserves some global recognition. We make these babies in the oven, but they would also be amazing cooked on a grill.

Sofrito Bolognese
An ex-boyfriend’s mom—who emigrated from Colombia—made the best meat sauce—she would fry sofrito for the base and simply add cooked ground beef, sazón, and jarred tomato sauce. My version is a bit more bougie—it calls for caramelized tomato paste and white wine—but the result is just as good.
