New Season Leg of Lamb @ Secret Sunday Lunch Club

Event information

First things first... this month I'm on a high after being featured in Esquire magazine's online Food & Drink section! www.esquire.co.uk/food-drink/restaurants/3911/secret-supper-clubs/

In other news this month, I also met the master Himself... Mark Hix and, as the new season lamb is sooo good at this time of year, I've been inspired to cook up one of his summer Lamb recipes. So I'm squeezing in an extra date on 23rd June and will be dishing up this menu:

Sunday 23rd June

To Start:
A Nibble and a Tipple to get you in the mood
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Main Event:
Spring Leg of Lamb baked in Hay
Roast Potatoes
Fresh Garden Peas with Rocket & Spring Onion
Caramelised Golden Beetroot
Courgette Gratin
Carrot & Cardamom Purée
Salsa Verde

Award winning http://knackeredmotherswineclub.blogspot.co.uk recommends...
Beaujolais or Chianti. There are a lot of flavours going on with the food here, so we don't to cover anything up. The beauty of Beaujolais is the Gamay grape, which is juicy and not at all overbearing. Go for Cru Beaujolais like Fleurie or Morgon if possible, or Beaujolais Villages.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To Follow up:
Chocolate Brownie with Home-made Marshmallows

Knackered Mother recommends...
Maury or Port. For the chocolate brownies, you've got to go sweet. And one of the best pairings for chocolate brownies is Port, or another fortified wine from France called Maury. If you can find one made by Mas Amiel, the combination will blow your mind.
