Rump of Lamb, Casserole of White Beans, Lentils and Celery, Wilted Kale

Pyrenean Lamb is great quality here at premium prices. Either roasted rump of Lamb, or as a sharing board, perhaps a roasted, butterflied leg rolled in garlic, thyme and rosemary, married with a creamy braised bean, lentil and celery based stew. A lamb garlic and Madeira reduction sauce to serve as its accompaniment.

Bavette Steak with Chimichurri Herb dressing, Duck Fat Chips

I like a steak as much as the next man. Bavette is a modest cut, full of flavour but does not take kindly to being cooked anything more than rare or rose. And I mean rare, rested, rather than bleu and plonked on a plate. My version of Chimichurri which hails from Argentina is a blend of Oregano, Basil, Coriander and Mint, mixed with Garlic, Seasoning and Olive Oil. Duck fat chips are triple cooked.

Roasted Veal Kidneys/Calves Liver/Lamb Kidneys, Herb and Mustard Mash, Savoy Cabbage, Caramelised Onion Sauce

Calves Liver is fast cooked but rested so it’s pink and treated almost like a steak. You just need some peppery greens and a buttery mash to mop up the intense sauce.

Sticky Toffee Pudding, Vanilla Ice Cream and Toffee Sauce

Another classic English pud, well I’m going to claim it anyway! Light date, black treacle and golden syrup sponge base, toffee sauce and Vanilla Ice Cream.What’s not to like?
