3 cups rice (uncooked)
1/4 cup water
5.5 cups water
3 large onions
4 tomatoes
1/4 cup tomato paste
4 cinnamon sticks
2 tsp each of some spices, including ground cinnamon
2 tbsp salt
1 cup cilantro, mint, and/or scallions
3 Thai chili peppers

The lamb shanks are throwing me off bc I know my fam of 3 can eat a 5lb turkey and idk what the difference is but it's also combined w/ all the extra crap idk about. How about 8?

My reaction to your family is But I think our thanksgiving Turkey is bigger (but with more people) so idk maybe that’s normal. Either way, still lower

Isn't a labshank the ribs? So 4-5 lamb ribs isn't that much... You can't eat the bone... and I really like my meat!

Is that a lot? it's what we normally do. Anyway I already read the answer bc I have no self control and I disagree

I’m pretty sure it’s part of the leg which isn’t as meaty (that part) but still.

Either way we have 9-10 people often for thanksgiving so the turkey would have to weight in the 15+ pound area to match yours per person Do turkeys generally even go bigger in stores? Maybe we get something like that idk

 

[ani07]

considering the amount of rice and meat, I would say 4 or 5, depending on how much you eat..

Yeah grocery stores can have up to 15 lbs usually, most would have 5-7lbs as a norm

I mean I’ve grown to understand what my family eats amount wise since I cook dinner almost every day, but I guess it just differs from them and some others ig
