That looks so good that I might just consider buying lamb. I have only had lamb chops once in my whole 56 years prepared by a friend and I just didn't like it. It very well could be that it wasn't prepared correctly or that the meat wasn't good but since that one time I have never wanted to spend the "outlandish" price for lamb here. I know lots of people that adore Lamb and have it for special occasions so it MUST be good.

Your photos and recipe does make me want to give it a go again. Just beautiful!

thank you for the tutorials Tink!!!! I haven't been on this sight since Jan due to a family emergency, so glad to be back!!!
I roasted a leg of lamb last night for my Brittish husband. I have been wanting to make a Victoria sponge for a while now, glad to see your tutorial on this. Perhaps for Easter. I have been wanting to have a "tea" on Sunday afternoons with my family for a while.

Baked Salmon w/Lemon, Parsley and Butter

I've been using this recipe for baked salmon forever so I am going to include it in this thread. I'm using half a slab of salmon here but this recipe works equally well with salmon fillet's as well, just reduce your cooking time (my rule of thumb is: 20 minutes per pound).

Serves 6


2 pounds of fresh salmon, bones removed
4-6 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
1 lemon, plus juice
1-2 tablespoons dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste
Sea or Kosher salt, to taste
1/4 pound of butter cut into slices



Preheat your oven to 400F


Run your salmon under cold water then pat dry with paper towels. Set aside.

Image


Image


Add 2 or 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil to the bottom of a oven proof dish.

Image


Place your salmon in your dish and then add the last 2 or 3 tablespoons of olive oil over your salmon.

Image


Next, cut half of your lemon and squeeze the juice over the salmon. With the other half of lemon we want to cut fairly thick rings and place those on top of the salmon.

Image


Image


Sprinkle the salmon with the 1/2 teaspoon of ground black pepper and salt.

Image


Next we want to add the dried parsley.

Image


Add your butter slices to the top of the salmon.

Image


Cover the oven proof dish with tin foil making sure to seal all the edges.

Image


Bake in your preheated heated oven for 45 minutes. Remove and let rest for a few minutes.

Image


Plate your fish and serve immediately with vegetables of your choice. Enjoy!
