Roasted Lamb with Root Vegetables
This recipe for lamb with vegetables makes a fantastic holiday meal. Everyone likes it so much that you won't wait for a holiday to make it again. As impressive as it looks and tastes, it is actually quite simple to make. It's basically a meal in one roasting pan, so even clean-up is a breeze.
Sourdough Focaccia alla Genovese
Classic Genovese focaccia made without commercial yeast. I adapted this recipe during the Covid-19 lockdown. Using a mother dough gives the taste an edge commercial yeast just can't achieve. I do the second rise overnight. This way it will be ready to bake for lunchtime.
