🥩 FRIDAY FAVOURITES | Leg of Lamb
𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗟𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗟𝗮𝗺𝗯 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗶𝗻 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝘀𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱𝗻'𝘁 𝗯𝗲 𝗮 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝘂𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗼𝘁𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁.

A beautifully cooked leg of lamb is tender, succulent and packed with flavour. It's the centrepiece that brings everyone to the table, whether you keep things traditional with rosemary, garlic and roast potatoes or give it a Mediterranean twist with lemon, herbs and plenty of colourful seasonal sides.

And don't think of it as just a Sunday roast. Leftover lamb is brilliant tucked into flatbreads, tossed through salads, added to curries or turned into a quick shepherd's pie, so a good leg can easily stretch to another meal.

There’s nothing quite like a great British banger, and we’re delighted our Wiltshire Sausages earned such high praise from Ali.

Made with quality meat and plenty of flavour, they’re just the thing for everything from sausage and mash with lashings of onion gravy to a weekend fry-up or an easy midweek supper.

Thanks so much for the fantastic feedback, Ali. 💚

🦆 𝗦𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗻, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝘁!

For beautifully crisp duck skin, lightly score it before cooking. Those shallow cuts help the fat underneath render out more effectively, leaving you with golden, crispy skin while the meat stays tender and juicy.

The key is to use a sharp knife and avoid cutting down into the meat itself. Then start skin-side down and give the fat plenty of time to render. A simple bit of prep that can make a huge difference to the finished dish.

🦆 FRIDAY FAVOURITES: DUCK BREAST

𝗙𝗮𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗲𝗻𝗱?

Duck breast brings a touch of restaurant-style dining to the table without being difficult to cook.

With its rich, distinctive taste and beautifully crisp skin, it’s a cut that needs surprisingly little fuss. Pan-sear until golden, allow the fat to render slowly, then finish to your liking and leave it to rest before slicing.

Pair it with seasonal greens and new potatoes, keep things fresh with a crisp salad, or add something fruity such as orange, cherry or blackberry for that classic sweet-and-savoury combination.

A little more adventurous than your usual chicken or steak, but wonderfully simple to enjoy at home.

As the pan gradually heats, the fat has time to render slowly, helping the bacon cook more evenly and crisp up without burning around the edges. No extra oil needed either – let the bacon do the work!
