Easter Lamb
Prep and cook time: 1 to 2 hours
Serves: 4
Ingredients
leg of lamb (about 2kg)
Sea salt and freshly ground
Black pepper
2 x 20g packs fresh mint
1 clove garlic, peeled
125ml Bianconi extra virgin olive oil
250ml chicken stock
400g new potatoes, sliced thickly
100g baby fennel, trimmed and cut in half lengthways
225g baby carrots, tops trimmed
110g baby leeks, trimmed
200g courgettes, sliced lengthways
250g fine or yellow beans, trimmed
150g asparagus, trimmed to 6cm lengths
Method
Preheat the oven to 220°C, 425°F, gas mark 7.
Score the lamb all over and season. Using a pestle and mortar, or in a food
processor, pound or blend the mint leaves with the garlic and seasoning until
smooth. Slowly add the olive oil and brush all over the lamb. Roast in the oven,
brushing with the oil regularly until the lamb is cooked.
Cooking times for the lamb:
pink: 10 minutes for every 450g plus 20 minutes.
Medium: 15 minutes for every 450g plus 20 minutes.
Well done: 20 minutes for every 450g plus 20 minutes.
Remove from the oven and allow to rest on a plate for 10 minutes. While the
meat is resting, remove the fat from the roasting tin. Add the stock to the tin and
make a light, tasty broth by boiling and dissolving all the goodness at the bottom.
Cook the potatoes in a large pan of boiling, salted water for 5 minutes. Add the
fennel and carrots and cook for a further 5 minutes. Then add the rest of the
vegetables and simmer for another 5 minutes.
Serve the vegetables in a shallow bowl with the lamb, sliced, on top and a little
broth and mint oil drizzled over.

Favourite Winter Salad
Prep and cook time: Up to 30 mins
Serves: 4
Ingredients
½ clove garlic
3 anchovies
200ml tub of crème fraîche
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
½ small loaf rustic bread
2 glugs of olive oil
Sea salt
4 little gem lettuce
2 handfuls watercress
1 fennel bulb
250g halloumi cheese, cut into 12 slices
1 pomegranate

ground black pepper. Simple!
Preheat the oven to 200°C, 400°F, gas mark 6.
Tear the bread into rough pieces of about an inch or so and scatter into a roasting
tin. Drizzle the bread with a little olive oil, then toss with a good pinch of sea salt,
and bake for 10 minutes or until crunchy. Trim the bottoms of the little gems, and
then break up each one keeping the leaves whole. Give the watercress and
lettuce leaves a quick wash, then a dry in a salad spinner and lay on a large
serving plate. Cut the tops off the fennel and hang on to the feathery parts. Trim
the bottom of each bulb and discard the scruffy outer leaves. Cut the bulb in half
and slice as thinly as possible from the root to the tip, then add to the rest of the
leaves. Next, fry the slices of halloumi on both sides in a little olive oil until
golden, and then drain on kitchen paper. Add the halloumi and croutons to the
serving plate. Season, give the whole lot a gentle toss, and then drizzle over the
crème fraîche dressing. Chop the fennel tops and bash the pomegranate to get
the seeds out, and then scatter the fennel and seeds over the salad.

Pavlova
Prep and cook time: 1 to 2 hours
Serves: 8
Ingredients
6 medium size egg whites
350g caster sugar (vanilla sugar is nice if you have any)
284ml carton double or whipping cream
2 x 250g punnets strawberries
2 x 125g punnets raspberries
Parchment or greaseproof paper
2 teaspoons vinegar
2 teaspoons corn flour
Method
Preheat the oven to 140°C, 275°F, Gas Mark 1.
Whisk the egg whites until very stiff, and then whisk in the sugar a teaspoon at a
time (don't over whisk or it will go runny again). Blend the vinegar and corn flour
(you don't have to use these if you don't have them, but by using them you will get
a slightly chewy centre to the meringue) and fold into the mixture. Place the
parchment paper on to one large or two smaller baking trays and divide the
mixture on to the paper into two circles -I always put a plate (approximately
20cm), under the parchment paper, as a guide while I spread the mixture to make
the circle, and then pull it out. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 1
hour or until firm. Allow to cool and remove the paper carefully. Whip the cream,
squash one punnet of strawberries and add it to the cream. Cut the rest of the
strawberries in half and with the raspberries add to the cream, gently fold in.
Simply sandwich the two meringues with the cream mixture just before serving.
Remember you can't add the cream too soon before serving as the cream melts
the meringue.

Pesto Crostini
Prep and cook time: Up to 30 mins
Serves: 6-8
Ingredients
1 clove garlic, peeled
3 x 20g bunches fresh basil, leaves only
100g pine nuts, lightly toasted and cooled
100g grated fresh Parmesan, and some to taste
250ml extra virgin olive oil, blended with a tiny squeeze of lemon juice (optional)
1 large ciabatta, cut into 1cm thick slices
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Method
Put half the garlic into a pestle and mortar or a food processor. Add a bit more
garlic if you like, but I tend to stick to about ½ a clove. Pound or pulse this with
the fresh basil leaves and the pine nuts to a fine puree. Turn out into a bowl and
add the Parmesan. Gently stir in and add a little more olive oil until smooth and
spreadable. If you want, add more Parmesan to adjust the taste. Griddle or toast
the slices of bread, rub with the remaining halved clove of garlic, then drizzle with
a little extra virgin olive oil. Spoon over the pesto and season well to taste.
Serve immediately.

Pot Roast Loin of Pork
Prep and cook time: 1 to 2 hours
Serves: 6
Ingredients
1.5kg loin of pork, boned, skinned, rolled and tied
15g pack thyme, picked
2 medium red onions, peeled, halved and sliced
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil, for frying
40g butter
4 figs, quartered
3 wine glasses Marsala
3 tablespoons crème fraiche
300ml chicken stock
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Method
Preheat the oven 200°C, 400°F, Gas Mark 6.
Roll the pork in the seasoning and thyme. Take an appropriately sized casserole
type pan fry off the onions and garlic in a tablespoon of olive oil. Cook on a
medium heat for roughly 4 minutes until softened and tender. Push the onions to
one side; add a knob of butter and fry off the pork, until lightly golden. Add the
figs and one glass of Marsala, mix with the onions, add the rest of the butter and
cover with an appropriately sized piece of wet greaseproof paper (because it is
wet it sits snuggly, allowing it to bake and steam as well as making a beautiful
sauce). Cook in the preheated oven for 45 minutes -1 hour. After 20 minutes
turn the pork in the lovely juices and add the other 2 glasses of Masala.
When the pork is cooked remove to a plate and allow to rest for 15 minutes before
eating.
Whilst waiting finish the homemade sauce by adding the chicken stock and
simmer for 10 minutes. Check the seasoning and add in the crème fraiche. Slice
the pork as thinly as you want and serve with the delicious sauce.
Vegetables should be simple, spinach, cabbage or brussel tops.
