Roast Leg of Lamb

When it comes to Easter, there's nothing quite like a roast leg of lamb. It's a classic dish that brings families together. The key to a delicious roast leg of lamb is the seasoning and cooking technique.

To start, season your lamb generously with salt, pepper, and rosemary. You can also add garlic for extra flavor. Let the lamb marinate for at least an hour to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Place the lamb in a roasting pan and roast for about 20 minutes per pound for medium-rare. If you prefer your lamb more well-done, roast for an additional 5-10 minutes per pound.

While the lamb is roasting, you can prepare some delicious sides. Roasted potatoes, glazed carrots, and mint sauce are all excellent choices to accompany your lamb.

Once the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in tender and juicy meat.

Serve your roast leg of lamb with the sides you prepared and enjoy a truly impressive Easter feast!

Easter Pudding

No Easter celebration is complete without a delicious dessert. One of my favorite Easter treats is Easter pudding, a rich and indulgent dessert that everyone will love.

To make the Easter pudding, you'll need ingredients like chocolate, butter, sugar, eggs, and flour. Melt the chocolate and butter together, then whisk in the sugar, eggs, and flour until smooth.

Pour the batter into a greased baking dish and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Once the pudding is baked, let it cool for a few minutes before serving. You can dust it with powdered sugar or serve it with a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence.

Enjoy this delightful Easter pudding as the perfect finale to your Easter meal. It's sure to impress your family and friends!
