Penarth Nub News has teamed up with a local chef, Tom Hann, who will be providing regular recipes for you to try out whilst the town is in lockdown.
Today's dish is a Lamb Roast to cook on Easter Sunday.
Tom Hann said: ''With people having to spend this time indoors we wanted to make sure that everyone was able ney
''As we are quickly approaching Easter Sunday, I will be doing one of the best lamb recipes I have cooked for quite some time, and in the upcoming days, I will be sharing some awesome sides that will complement the lamb perfectly.
"I'm putting this out now so you have plenty of warning to get things in for a lovely Easter Sunday roast."
This recipe will also work with beef or pork, cooking times may vary.
Ingredients:
• This recipe calls for 1 ½kg lamb leg deboned and butterflied• 2 preserved lemons,
• 50g green olives,• 30g capers,
• 1 bunch dill,• Zest and juice of 1 lemon,
• 3 garlic cloves,• 2 tbs olive oil.
Method:
- Take preserved lemons, discard the flesh and roughly chop the rind and add to a pestle and mortar.
- Roughly chop green olives discarding any stones, and crush garlic, also adding to pestle and mortar.
- Finely chop dill and add that and drained capers to pestle and mortar,
- Zest and juice lemon into pestle and mortar then add olive oil and work into a rough paste, alternatively, you could do this in a food processor but careful not to make to smooth.
- Rest lamb before cooking until room temperature.
- Preheat oven to 220 degrees C.
- Thoroughly score the outside of the lamb to ensure flavour penetration.
- Put the lamb on an oiled baking tray and smear dressing all over the surface.
- You can also make this dressing the night before, smeared over the meat and marinate in the fridge overnight for a bit of a deeper flavour, simply roasting and preparing sides the next day.
- Roast lamb for 15 minutes then lower heat to 180 and continue cooking for a further 15 minutes, keep in mind that this is an approximate time and may take more time depending on size.
- This will be pink and juicy, cook longer for well-done meat.
- Using a temperature probe roast lamb to 45 degrees C and rest for half an hour.
