Eid al-Adha and Tayyibat : how to cook the lamb feast
The Eid lamb is a once-a-year occasion that demands knowing exactly which cut goes into which dish. This guide breaks down the whole carcass into Tayyibat-aligned recipes for every part, with timing for 50 to 100 guests.
Day 0 : the slaughter and immediate steps
The animal is hung 4 to 6 hours after slaughter to relax the muscles. Quick portion split : the liver and kidneys are eaten the same day (Tayyibat foie-boeuf-au-riz recipe), the shoulder is reserved for slow methods (mechoui or souris confite), the leg goes to lamb-and-rice or lamb-with-freekeh, the ribs to grilled skewers, and the bones to a deep stockpot for 8h of broth that will season the whole week.
Day 1 to 3 : protein-day cycle
Day 1 : mechoui served family-style. Day 2 : lamb tagine with prunes and almonds. Day 3 : lamb-freekeh stew with bone broth. Each meal respects the 2-hour rule between courses, no two proteins on the same plate, no industrial dessert. The natural fattiness of the Eid lamb covers most macros without needing extra ghee.
Freezer strategy for the surplus
Vacuum-pack the unused cuts in 250g portions (one portion = one Tayyibat protein day per person). The bone broth freezes in 500ml jars and lasts six months. The mechoui leftovers can be reheated in ghee for 5 minutes and served on basmati rice for 3 weeks of effortless lunches.
