Here I sort of followed a recipe by Ross Whitmill, head chef at The James Fig pub. I say sort of because he doesn’t actually give the measurements of anything he used, but all’s well that ends well!! He also adds a couple of mushrooms into the mix which really compliments the rarebit. Read the rest of this entry »

We had a sleepover last night with Kat, a good friend from our school days – a fitting excuse to share a good meal and a bottle of wine (or or more). We ended up putting this roast lamb recipe together mainly because we managed to get a 50% reduction on a half shoulder of lamb! I love this particular roast lamb recipe because it’s pretty easy to prepare and all the prep can be done before everything kicks off.
