Preparation
Brown the Lamb
Increase heat to medium-high and add the ground lamb. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. Drain excess fat if necessary.
Add Flavors

Simmer
Reduce heat to low and let the sauce simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Assemble the Dish
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the lamb bolognese in a baking dish. Top with shredded mozzarella and crumbled goat cheese.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
Serve
Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly. Top with house-pickled local hot peppers before serving. Enjoy!
