Ground Lamb

"This recipe is great for just about anything you want to fill or top. Use it over rice, serve it in Pita's with Feta Cheese, fill pastry shells, or even have it on toast! It is very flavorful and has an Indian Flair to it."

3⁄4 cup red wine or 3/4 cup beef broth

2 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon salt
