Use a round, deep serving dish which allows the colorful stir fry to pop. Portion the Shredded Lamb Stir Fry evenly into the dish, making sure to have a fair distribution of the lamb, vegetables, and cashews. Sprinkle additional sesame seeds on top for garnish. Serve with a side of lightly steamed broccoli or a fresh green salad to complement the rich flavors. The final look should be as colorful and appetizing as it is healthy and protein-rich.
