Lamb Ribs with Chermoula

📍 New York Mediterranean $$$

at Estela

"Vegetarian food rarely generates this kind of excitement, but Estela earns it. The rice cake is pan-fried until the exterior is crisp and the interior is still yielding, and the hen-of-the-woods mushrooms provide both chew and umami. The sauce is a silky, deeply reduced stock that coats everything. Every omnivore at the table is jealous."
