A spring lamb for friends
ОглавлениеSome locals over today. It’s the end of May – my favourite month of the year – and time for some lovely lamb and a Sunday lunch without the merest whiff of roast potatoes, vegetables and gravy. Much as I adore all that, come a dash of sun, a roast lamb dinner for friends needs to have a relaxed, Mediterranean or Middle Eastern twist. That means lots of herbs, lots of bright colours, and bags of flavour.
In this recipe the lamb is marinated overnight so that it is infused with a herby, lemony freshness that’s set off by the warmth of cumin. The quinoa salad is a riot of colour, texture and taste, while the vegetables provide crunch and a salad, with its balsamic dressing, adds a touch of sweetness.
