This dish may be a intricate one to pair with wine because of the spices in the Indian marinade. generally i would serve a heavy, fruity wine with a leg of lamb. consisting of South African Cabernet or a Californian Zinfandel. however, with the Indian spice blend, the flavor can get a bit heavy when combined with a robust purple wine. In this case, it might genuinely be fantastic to choose a lighter pink wine, along with a Beaujolais. in case you serve it slightly chilled at approximately thirteen-15 levels Celsius it ought to complement the dish nicely.
