Lamb Neck Fillet

Lamb Neck Fillet

Although Lamb is traditional at this time of year we can’t realistically justify spending £20+ on a leg of Larry. So we went for a neck Fillet. It was very tender and tasty after long slow cooking.

Ingredients:-

1 Lamb Neck Fillet, seasoned with Salt & Pepper
1 Onion, Sliced
1 Leek, sliced lengthways
1 Carrot, finely batoned
1 head of Garlic, halved
a few Black Peppercorns
2 Bay Leaves
1 Tsp of dried Rosemary
4ml of Stock
125Ml of White Wine
1 Tbsp of Tomato Puree
1 Tbsp of cornflour with water
Oil to fry

Method:-

(1) Sear the seasoned Lamb on all sides in a little Oil and place in a casserole dish.
(2) In the same pan fry the Onion, Leek, Carrot and Garlic, until they have softened.
(3) Stir in the Tomato Puree then add the Wine and Stock.
(4) Add the Peppercorns, Rosemary and Bay Leaves.
(5) Stir in the Cornflour mix and allow to simmer for a few minutes.
(6) Pour the sauce over the Lamb and place in the oven covered.
(7) Cook for 3 hours at 160c.

We served ours with Leeks, Carrots, Peas and roast Potatoes.

Pullum Benedict recipe

It’s a play on words really as there’s a yellow sticker Chicken Burger invasion in our version of an Egg Benedict. The Chicken mince I found at the same time was truly dreadful and regardless of how little it says on a yellow sticker, I’ll never buy it again. But these Burgers were very tasty. How the results from clearly mechanically recovered Chicken can be so variable, beats me…..

Ingredients for the Hollandaise Sauce:-

100g of Butter (Margarine), melted
2 Egg Yolkes
1 Tsp of White Wine Vinegar
Salt & Pepper

Method:-

(1) Whisk the Egg Yolks and White Wine Vinegar in a bowl.
(2) Place the bowl of a pan of simmering water, making sure the bowl is not immersed in the water.
(3) Slowly pour in the melted Butter while continuously whisking, until the sauce has thickened.
(4) Season with Salt & Pepper.

Additional Ingredients:-

A thick slice of Sour Dough bread per person (Gluten free for us)
Spinach
Chicken Burgers
Streaky Bacon
Vinegar
2 Eggs per person
Margarine
Fresh (Home grown) Parsley to garnish

Method:-

(1) Grill the Bacon until it is crispy.
(2) Gently fry the Burgers until they are browned on both sides and set aside under a warm grill.
(3) In a frying pan gently wilt the Spinach in a little Margarine.
(4) Toast the bread on both sides and set aside.
(5) Bring a pan of water to the boil and stir in a little Vinegar.
(6) Swirl the water and then poach the Eggs individually.
(7) Build by adding the wilted Spinach to the toasted bread. Next cut the Burgers in half and add them. Now add the poached Eggs. Pour the Hollandaise Sauce over the top and dress with the crispy Bacon and a sprinkle of Parsley.

This really was a very tasty meal. The Bread and Burgers were both yellow sticker finds. So although it looks a bit fancy this recipe was well within budget!
