Spicy slow-roast lamb – or why I love Nigel Slater

by Jeanne Horak on November 28, 2007 24 Comments in Gluten-free, Main course - meat, NaBloPoMo 2007, Recipes - meat

nigel-slater-slow-roast-lamb

Some of you may have been wondering where the leftover roast lamb came from that I used to make very-un-traditional lamb Stroganoff last week.  Well, wonder no more.

This is not the first time I have waxed lyrical about Nigel Slater on this blog.  I’m sure I recall saying somewhere that if the house were on fire and I could only save one cookbook, it would be his Kitchen Diaries, and I stand by that choice.

So why do I love him so much?  Let me count the ways.

Because he tends to be self-deprecating rather than other chefs and food writers who tend to be stridently self-promoting.

Because the photographs of food in his Kitchen Diaries represent food that is actually going to be eaten, not raw chicken crisped with a blowtorch and sprayed with glycerin by food stylists.

Because his diaries are the perfect format to follow and apreciate the ebb and flow of seasonal eating without making a big issue out of it.

Because his recipes are unfussy and look achievable – no granitas or foams or towers – yet richly flavoured and satisfying.

Because nothing of his that I have ever made has turned out badly.

So yes, you could say I’m a fan… and this dish only confirms my belief in the man.  When the weekend is cold and rainy and you have friends coming over for lunch, what can be more satisying than a leg of lamb, rubbed with spices and left to cook long and slow, till the meat falls off the bones at the mere touch of a fork? Served on cunningly clever chickpea mash with paprika (recipe to follow in a future post) with honey glazed cumin carrots, it simply does not get better than this.

For more luscious lamb recipes, have a look at:

  • Meeta’s fettuccini with lamb sausage meatballs
  • Michelle’s slow-roast lamb shoulder
  • Kalyn’s lamb curry with cauliflower

NIGEL SLATER’S SLOW-ROAST LAMB

Ingredients

a leg of lamb (about 2.3 kg)
1 large onion, roughly chopped
a few sprigs of fresh rosemary
2 cloves of garlic
1 Tbs sea salt flakes
a pinch of sweet paprika
1 Tbs cumin seeds
2 Tbs thyme leaves
2 Tbs olive oil
a thick slice of butter

Method

Pre-heat the oven to 160C and start making the spice rub.  Peel the garlic cloves and lightly crush them together with the salt using a pestle and mortar. Add the paprika, cumin seeds and thyme leaves.  Gradually add the oil so as to end up with a thickish paste.  Melt the butter in a small pan and stir into the spce paste.

Put the lamb in a casserole dish or roasting tin and rub it all over with the spice paste.  I don’t mind getting my hands dirty but if you are squeamish you can use the back of a spoon.  make a few holes in the flesh with a skewer and insert sprigs of rosemary.  Scatter the chopped onion around the meat and put the roasting tin in the oven for 35 minutes uncovered.

Pour in 250ml water and baste the meat with the liquid, then continue roasting for a further three hours, basting the meat every hour with the juices that have collected in the bottom of the pan.

After 3 hours, remove the pan from the oven and pour off the top layer of oil that has collected, leaving the cloudy, herby sediment.  Cover the pan with a lid ans set aside for ten minutes to rest.  Carve the lamb and serve with chickpea mash, spooning the pan juices over both as you go.

NOTES:  The addition of the onions and the rosemary are mine.  If you want to leave anything out, leave out the rosemary.  The flavour of the onion is indispensible in my opinion.  The vaguely Middle-Eastern flavour of the spice rub is just sublime with the lamb, cooking to a crispy crust on the outside while the meat turns soft as butter during that long slow cooking process.  A keeper.

    Slow cooked if the best. Shoulder of lamb works great like this too – and you get more crispy fat (healthy).
    I use lamb neck for my casserole – because it has so much bone you get that lamb flavour from the bones in the sauce, and mor tender. Leg always seems a bit dry even doing it like this. The same cooking time as above Let the meat cool out of the sauce. Debone it (with gloves if you don’t have asbestos hands), mix the meat back into the sauce, saving the bones for lamb stock & soup, add some dried apricots and there’s something different.

    You know, I’ve had an urge to cook a leg of lamb all week long. This looks absolutely fantastic and chickpeas too! Now I just need to (a) go to the butchers and (b) invite many people round to eat….
    Hooray for Nigel!

    Hi Andrew
    Agree 100%. I knew there was a reason wny you and I get on so well 🙂
    Hi James
    WOW, that sounds wonderful. I love the addition of apricots too – thanks for sharing the recipe!
    Hi Angela
    Oh, don’t put it off till you have guests – I’ve found that you can get pretty small lamb cuts, perfect for dinner for two and a bit left over for, say, lamb Stroganoff 😉
    Hi Charlotte
    Kitchen Diaries rocks, to be sure. And do yourself a favour – just try this lamb!!
    Hi Boogs
    Hate foams? Then this is the book for you. Not a poncey recipe in sight 🙂
    Hi Sarah
    Sweetie, you need to get out more!!! But thanks for the compliments 🙂
    Hi Saju
    Thanks!
    Hi Robyn
    Oh, don’t even start. I can’t imagine how sublime thos would be with real, herby Karroo lamb. Why, oh why didn’t I eat more of it when I lived at home??
    Hi Ronell and Antonia
    I suggest putting this book in your letter to Santa ASAP – you won’t regret it 🙂
    Hi Inge
    His book is a real treasure, isn’t it? And you could probably cook out of it every day because it’s honest and simple food, not too rich or too fancy.
    Hi Gill
    Excellent choice for Christmas – and do try the recipe. It is just marvellous!

    Jeanne, that was lovely! I had just over a kilogram of lamb pieces (“lamb with bones” and “lamb loin”), and omitted the water – didn’t need it at all, as was cooking it in the Dutch oven in my oven. Lovely!

    Thank you for the hint. Will dig out the book again and find something else to cook over the weekend..

    I stumbled across your blog while searching for something to do with left over roast leg of lamb. My husband wanted stroganoff, which I’ve never made with lamb. I read your wonderful articles and just couldn’t find a thing I didn’t like about it. Making this tonight. I guess this has been kicking around the internet for the last 10 years just waiting for me to find it.

    I made this Nigel Slater recipe and found the pan juices way too salty (which spoilt the dish as I had poured them over as suggested). For me I should have used a teaspoonful of sea salt flakes for the rub not a tablespoonful.

Dyed Gwyl Dewi Hapus - or happy St David's Day if Dyed Gwyl Dewi Hapus - or happy St David's Day if you don't speak Welsh 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

March 1 is the day on which the Welsh people celebrate their patron saint, St David, and one of their traditions is to wear a daffodil, the national flower of Wales. Here are five daffodil facts to impress your Welsh friends:

🌼 There's no difference between a daffodil and a narcissus. Daffodil (or jonquil) is simply the common name for members of the Narcissus genus, so all daffodils are narcissi.

🌼 There is only one species if daffodil that is native to the UK - Narcissus Pseudonarcissus, or wild daffodils. You can spot them by the fact that their outer 6 petals are a paler yellow than the central trumpet, and they are usually smaller than the showy, giant yellow commercially grown daffs. 

🌼 It's not entirely certain how the daffodil came to be the national flower of Wales - one theory is that they are one of the few flowers in bloom on 1 March. Another is that the daffodil is less... antisocial to wear than the other Welsh national symbol, the leek 🤣

🌼 Daffodils are the official 10th wedding anniversary flower.

🌼 Daffodils contain a poisonous sap - keep away from pets and if mixing daffodils in a vase with other flowers, let them stand in water separately for 24 hours first I case they affect the other flowers. 

Are daffodils your favourite Spring flower? Or do you prefer something else?
As a girl who lived more than half her life in the As a girl who lived more than half her life in the African sun, February and March are the hardest months for me to bear in the UK. All the excitement of Christmas and New Year has faded; the credit card bill has arrived; the sun is still setting before I finish work; and the snow that we all hoped for at Christmas finally arrives and disrupts everything. This is why, every year in Feb/March since I moved to the UK (other than the year I broke my femur a week before I was due to fly!), I decamp to South Africa for 2 weeks to visit my family and get my fix of vitamin D (and vitamin Sea!).

This week I should have been here - the Beacon Island hotel in Plettenberg Bay, which I have been visiting since I was about six years old. It is where I go to lift my spirits and clear my head. But for the last 2 years, Covid has meant that I have not been able to go home - or see my family. 

For the most part, although I miss travel, I am secretly quite liking taking a breather and being able to be home without FOMO for a while. But not being able to see my family has been incredibly hard, particularly as I have no family in this country.  And my blood boils at people bending the rules (a dentist appointment in Tenerife when you live in Manchester? Seriously??) to go on holiday while I have not seen my clinically vulnerable brother in two years. Covidiots.

But you can bet your bottom dollar that as soon as vaccinations are widely rolled out and international travel becomes practical again, I will be on a plane to South Africa so fast it will make your head spin.

Where will YOU head to first once we are able to travel again,  and why?

Ready for a wine tasting? 🍷 [Press trip] Back Ready for a wine tasting? 🍷

[Press trip] Back before Covid put our lives on hold, I spent a few days in the Languedoc-Rousillon wine region of France learning about (and tasting!) Pays d'Oc IGP wines. 

Want to learn more about the region's wines? Read on, swipe through the images (remember to  bookmark this post to refer back to later) - and click the live link in my bio for the full blog post! 

🍷 The Languedoc-Rousillon region is the largest wine producing region in the world, and produces about a third of all French wine. Pays d'Oc IGP is a classification region within Languedoc-Rousillon, with vineyards that take up over half the total vineyard area in the Languedoc-Rousillon region. Pays d'OC IGP wines account for about 20% of the total of all French wine produced.

🍷IGP stands for Indication Geographique Protegée, meaning it is a protected indication of origin and wines must be made only from approved grape varieties that must be grown entirely within the region's geographic boundaries.

🍷 Most French wines are named for their region (Bordeaux, Chablis, Champagne) but you won't see the name of the grape variety on the label. In response to consumer demand and the New World trend to label wines with grape varieties, rules were changed in Pays d'Oc in the late 1980s and Pays d'Oc wines now account for 92% of French varietal wines (e.g. labelled Chardonnay, Syrah, Viognier etc.).

🍷 There are 58 grape varieties that are allowed to be planted in the region but the Pays d'Oc IGP varietal wines to watch out for include Chardonnay, Rolle (another name for Vermentino) and Viognier among the whites; and Syrah, Mourvedre and Pinot Noir among the reds.

🍷 All wines labelled Pays d'Oc IGP are sampled and approved in a blind tasting by a panel of professionals, meaning the label is a guarantee of quality to the consumer. 

🍷 Producers that you should look out for include Gerard Bertrand, Domaine Gayda, Les Jamelles, Les Yeuses, Paul Mas and Domaine Aigues Belles.

New year's resolutions: waste of time or the way f New year's resolutions: waste of time or the way forward?

I have mentioned before that I don't really make new year's resolutions. There is always so much pressure to make them BIG lofty goals and this is essentially what dooms them to failure. Instead, for the past few years I have made a list of... affirmations? Mantras? I have yet come up with a word that does not make my toes curl 🤣

These are essentially reminders rather than goals - presets, if you like, for the year ahead. I keep them in a handwritten list next to my computer and when I don't know how to react to something or how to shake a mood, I read them and there is usually an answer in there somewhere. 

Given the bruising year last year was, and how 2021 has so far proven itself to be not much better, I really wanted to add something practical to this year's list to lift my spirits on days when I am down. And for that I borrowed shamelessly from the wonderful @gretchenrubin:

🌈  ACT THE WAY YOU WANT TO FEEL 🌈

And this photo is a reminder of how I want to feel on so, so many levels: hanging out with friends; dancing in the sunshine; wearing my favourite red dress; travelling (this was in Carouge, Switzerland); and surrounded by a rainbow of colour. I can't travel and I can't see friends, but I can dance in my kitchen, singing at the top of my voice wearing my brightest clothes. 

What strategies do you use to lift your spirits? I'd love to hear!

If you, like me, are mssing your Pret-a- Manger Bi If you, like me, are mssing your Pret-a- Manger Bircher muesli during lockdown, you will want to bookmark this post right now! 🔖

I have learnt a few things during lockdown. I have learnt that I am more comfortable spending long periods alone than I had ever imagined; that I suffer a lot more from FOMO (fear of missing out!) than I would like to admit; and that pre-Covid I spent rude sums of money on commuting and barista coffee...! 

I also learnt that although I miss travel and social events and meals out, it is often the smaller things that you miss most acutely - the freedom to call up a friend you haven't seen in a while and inviting them over. Hugging (or even seeing) my family. And grabbing a macchiato and a Pret Bircher muesli on the way to work. Don't ask me why, but it became a small obsession of mine to create a fakeaway Pret Bircher during lockdown - and I think I have succeeded! Here's how:

For 2 servings you will need:
100g rolled oats
200ml milk or water
1 Tbsp sunflower seeds
1 Tbsp pumpkin seeds 
1 Tbsp shelled pistachio nuts
1 Tbsp dried cranberries 
2 small apples
175g plain yoghurt
Honey
Pomegranate rails

Mix the oats, seeds, nuts and cranberries together then add the milk/water and a pinch of salt. Mix well, cover and refrigerate overnight. 

When ready to serve, grate the apples and mix them in with the oats and yoghurt (add a little extra milk to loosen if needed). Stir in honey to taste and serve topped with pomegranate arils and pistachios. Full recipe and more photos are available now on the blog - click the live link in my profile.

Did you try any fakeaway recipes over lockdown? Please let me know in the comments - I would love to hear about it!
Me, turning around and walking out on 2020 like a Me, turning around and walking out on 2020 like a bad romance...

And while we are on the topic, can I still get a refund on the first week of 2021? Not sure it was fit for purpose... 🤣 Either way, I am putting on my brightest dress, fixing my eyes firmly on the future and walking purposefully towards it (bottle of wine optional but always welcome!). 

I don't make resolutions at new year, but I have been thinking about what positives I want to carry forward with me as I walk away from the car crash of a year that was 2020. For me, some big positives have been:

* Working from home, in terms of increased flexibility, increased productivity and increased visibility - I definitely hope never to have to work in the office 5 days a week again. 
* Better and more regular exercise. I ran 585km in 2020, probably as much as in all previous years put together - let's see what I can do in 2021!
* Better connection  and more video calls to faraway friends and family. Why have I not always made video calls?? 

I don't think we need to even mention the many negatives of the last year, but I am curious to know if you took any positives away from 2020? Let me know in the comments 🙂

Onwards and upwards!

So how was your Christmas day yesterday? In this So how was your Christmas day yesterday? 

In this year that has been so hard on so many people,  I hope you had somebody to share it with; enough food to feel replete; and warm place to eat. I know it was  not the Christmas that we all wanted, but it was definitely the Christmas that reminded us to count our blessings. 

One of the blessings at my table was one of the best Brussels sprout recipes I have ever had - roasted sprouts with chorizo, hazelnuts and thyme - and with only 4 ingredients, so simple to make! Trust me, you want to bookmark this one 🔖

For 4 people you need:
* 500g trimmed Brussels sprouts 
* 75g chorizo, chopped
* 15g hazelnuts
* sprig of thyme
* vegetable oil

1. Pre-heat the oven to 180C. Halve each sprout lengthways and toss the sprouts in enough oil to lightly coat. Arrange on a baking sheet, cut side down. Roast for 15 mins or until outer leaves start to brown, then turn over and roast till cut sides just start to colour (about 10 mins). 

2. While the sprouts are roasting,  toast the hazelnuts in a large dry pan over medium heat till light brown, remove and roughly crush.

3. In the same pan, fry the chorizo  till it starts to release its oil, then remove sprouts from the oven and add to pan. Mix well.

4. Tip sprouts into a serving bowl and top with hazelnuts and thyme leaves. Serve hot.
