Scottish Mustard Lamb And Turnip Purry Recipes

Steps:

• Coat a wide, large heavy-bottomed pot with oil and heat over high heat. Toss 1/2 of the lamb cubes generously with salt and half of the flour. Add immediately to the hot oil and brown well on all sides. When the lamb is really brown on all sides, remove it from the pot and reserve. If the oil begins to smoke, lower the heat and continue. Repeat this process with the remaining lamb and flour. Put all the browned lamb on a plate.
• Remove the excess oil from the pot, add a little fresh oil and heat it over medium-high heat. Add the onions and celery and season with salt. Cook until the onions start to soften and are very aromatic, about 7 to 8 minutes. Add the turnips, stir to combine and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Return the lamb to the pan and add the tomato puree, stout, marjoram, and bay leaves. Stir to combine, taste for seasoning and adjust, if needed. Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce the heat it to a simmer. Cover the pot halfway with a lid and simmer the stew for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours, checking and stirring occasionally. Remove the lid during the last 15 to 20 minutes of the cooking time to allow the liquid to reduce and thicken. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed (it probably will). When it's done, the lamb will be tender and full-flavored but not falling apart or stringy. Discard the bay leaves and transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish with parsley and serve.
• That's a great craic!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees F and arrange the rack in the middle.
• Set lamb at room temperature while oven heats up, at least 20 minutes. Combine breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons of the oil, mint, curry, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl and stir to mix thoroughly; set aside.
• Pat lamb dry with paper towels, score fat in a crosshatch pattern, and season well with additional salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large cast iron pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is just smoking, add the lamb, fat-side down, and brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer the lamb to a plate. Brush mustard evenly on the seared side of the lamb. Press the reserved breadcrumb mixture into the meat so that it adheres. Place lamb back into the pan and roast until the internal temperature of lamb is 135 degrees F for medium rare, about 35 to 40 minutes. Allow lamb to sit for 5 to 10 minutes before carving and serving.

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 180°C: 350°F: Gas 4. Wipe the lamb withe a cloth. Spread the mustard over the skin, season and scatter with a little rosemary (if used). Place in a roasting tin and cook for about 1½ hours, basting occasionally. Remove the meat and keep warm. Reserve the cooking juices in the tin, having skimmed the fat. Add the wine and redcurrant jelly to the tin, place over a medium heat and stirring well. Stir in the sour cream and simmer until slightly thickened, add a little cornflour for a thicker gravy. Chop the turnip roughly and boil until soft. Drain well and mash. Add the butter, double cream, cummin and season to taste. Carve the lamb, serve with a portion of the turnip purry and potatoes with the gravy served in a boat.
