Slow Roast Leg of Lamb
If you're slow-roasting lamb, it comes out so tender you don't need a knife to cut it. And when I say slow, I mean slow - 7 hours. And I am roasting the leg of lamb in the oven, not in a slow cooker. Tastes great served with Dauphinoise potatoes or mashed potatoes and vegetables.
Mascarpone-Berry Ice Cream
If you are looking for a recipe to make ice cream without an ice cream maker, look no further. This delicious mascarpone ice cream is made with raspberries and strawberries. I like to serve it with extra berries and vanilla sauce. You can use other berries as well, of course.
