This gorgeous Easter lunch menu inspired by Theo Randall’s new cookbook, My Simple Italian, is sure to go down a treat with family and friends.
Starter:
Kippers Cullen Skink
Cullen skink soup is traditionally made with smoked haddock but Theo finds the sweet taste of kipper to be better.
Main:
Lamb Rump with Salsa Verde
Lamb rump is very under-rated – when marinated it has a wonderful flavour and is surprisingly tender. Salsa verde is the perfect sauce for the lamb as it cuts the fattiness and gives a lovely fresh taste. Serve with a young Rosso di Montalcino.
Dessert:
English Raspberries with Crema di Mascarpone and Almond Croquante
I love this recipe because it is so easy. It is perfect to put in the middle of the table for a group of people to share (or fight over). The slightly sharp flavour of fresh raspberries is perfect with the sweet mascarpone cream and caramel.
