Lamb, leg, half fillet, braised, lean

Lamb leg half fillet is a cut of meat from the leg. The figures here describe the lean meat after braising. It mainly provides protein and fat: per 100g, it contains 27g of protein and 11g of fat, including 4.6g of saturated fat. It also provides iron, zinc and B vitamins.

Protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues, while iron is needed to make haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood. Although these figures are for lean meat, it still contains saturated fat, which is worth noting when monitoring intake. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
