‘Be kind!’ Amanda Owen fans rush to her defence as promotional meat post sparks backlash

Our Yorkshire Farm star Amanda Owen explored ways in which you can fully utilise a full joint of lamb, leaving no wastage whatsoever. The shepherdess shared pictures of herself cooking up the meat in her kitchen with two of her children on her Instagram page yesterday.

As part of her lengthy post in view of her 372,000 followers, the 46-year-old wrote: “This British lamb is a favourite with the children and as they love helping out in the kitchen, they were excited to get involved with making this week’s dish and learn why lamb is such a healthy choice.”

The mother-of-nine went on to detail how she created the dish using leftover bone to create stock and ingredients such as Moroccan seasoning and cranberries.

She concluded her post encouraging her fans to let her know how they made their meals with their families.

Amanda has since faced criticism since teaming up with the supermarket chain.

While the shepherdess tends to ignore the criticism, she recently addressed why she had been involved with promotional posts.

The farmer said last month: “Right well it’s time to set the record straight.

“I encourage the children to follow whatever paths they choose in life, to be ambitious & that they should themselves strive to achieve their own personal goals.
