Lamb Love

I've made magic with lamb lately.
I cooked spezzatino agnello con gremolata (lamb ragout) and roasted potatoes for the Randoms. What a lovely dish! I love the way ragouts happen. They just flow. I really feel the love radiate into the food. This one had lamb, onions, garlic, ginger, citrus zest, and fresh parsley, green beans, zucchini and carrots. So nice.
A few nights ago, it was potato gratin, Jack Monaco's green bean salad, and broiled lamb leg steaks. It was one of those meals that falls together perfectly, is not difficult to execute, and which positively dances on the palate. That's how dinner should be! Too often I get mired down in menus; trying to find foods that are seasonal and that will harmonize with each other. Other times, the menu is easy enough, but the prep time is monumental, and even a full day in the kitchen doesn't feel like enough. Then, of course, there's the meal that just tastes lousy.
An easy, delicious dinner is the prize. Sit down, relax, and toast your blessings! Thanks lambies!
