Well yeah, actually, Paul did the dinner and I have been out tinkering in the garden this afternoon!! The car is still off limits till Wednesday though!

Tonight is Roast Leg of Lamb marinated in Garlic Puree with Roast Potatoes and Roast Onions with Cauliflower Cheese, Sliced Green Beans, Peas, and Onion Sauce. Mint sauce on the side! Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum!

The blokes at work will love me tomorrow stinking of Garlic and Onions!

I quite like lamb myself, Budwieser. Incredibly expensive though, and tricky to cook right. Usually opt for it in restaurants.

Nice!!!

Next time stab holes in it and poke the garlic in to it (garnish with sprigs of fresh rosemary if you have it and glaze with honey), leave it overnight and then roast it...

You will be amazed!!!

I guarantee it, even more so if you bbq it over an indirect heat in a weber!!!

Cook lamb slowly and you will get excellent results, a leg of lamb done in a slow cooker all day is very hard to beat for flavour and texture.

If you cook it with stock, wine, onions, garlic and veg etc you can make some excellent gravies as well!!!

Steak casserole with onions & carrots. New potatoes roasted in their skins, sprinkled with herbs and roasted in olive oil, fresh spring cabbage and green beans. Washed down with a bottle of Deen De Bortoli, Family Reserve, Durif 2002. a superb antipodean number, a much better finish than their cricketers of late.

sounds yummy - especially the wine, I havn't tried a Durif - will keep my eye out.

we had Scottish sirloin steak (rare/medium), potato wedges & tinned peas

wine - Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon - about £3 a litre & 14%
