Spring lamb chops with salsa verde @rachelallencooks #Ballymaloe for #Easter 🐣

Here’s a really quick and easy recipe for Spring lamb chops with mint salsa verde, just delicious at this time of the year.
Serves 4-6

For the mint salsa verde:
Makes 150ml

1 handful of parsley leaves
1 handful of mint leaves
grated zest and juice of 1 small lemon
1 clove of garlic, crushed
1 tbsp capers, rinsed
50ml extra virgin olive oil
black pepper

lamb chops (2-3 per person)
1 – 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper

First make the salsa verde, put the mint, parsley, lemon zest, garlic and capers into a food processor and whiz until it’s all finely chopped. Add the lemon juice and olive oil (add more oil if you want it a bit more runny). Check the seasoning – it might not need salt, as the capers can be quite salty.

Next cook the lamb chops, remove excess fat from the chops, but leave about ½ cm still on. Drizzle with olive oil and season with pepper. Place a frying pan or grill pan on a high heat. When it’s good and hot add the lamb chops and sprinkle with a little salt and more pepper. Cook for approximately 3 minutes on each side. Remove to a plate, cover and leave to rest in a warm oven for 5 minutes.
Serve with a good drizzling of the salsa verde.

Chocolate Fudge Pudding @BallymaloeHouse Co.Cork

Served warm with softly whipped cream, this chocolate pudding is heaven. Though it is rich, it is not too heavy. Real chocolate lovers may like to serve the pudding with warm Chocolate Sauce alongside. I usually bake this pudding in one dish to serve family style, but the mixture can also be divided between eight 200 ml/7 fl oz (¾ cup) ramekins if you would like each person to have their own individual pudding.

Note: In this recipe, you can swap the plain flour with a gluten-free flour blend to yield a nice gluten-free dessert; the texture will be slightly different but the pudding will still be rich and delicious.

Serves 6–8

For The Pudding

  • 150 g/5 oz dark chocolate, 62% cocoa solids, cut into small pieces
  • 150 g/5 oz (⅔ cup) unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 150 ml/5 fl oz (⅔ cup) warm water
  • 110 g/4 oz (½ cup plus 1 tablespoon) caster (superfine) sugar
  • 4 large eggs, separated
  • 25 g/1 oz (¼ cup) plain flour, sifted
    pinch of cream of tartar (tartaric acid)

To serve

icing (confectioners) sugar, for sprinkling softly whipped cream or crème fraîche.

To make the pudding: Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas Mark 6. Place a 1.5 litre/2½ pint (6¼ cup) ovenproof pie dish in a roasting tin that neatly fits it. The roasting tin should be at least 5 cm/2½ inches deep.

Melt the chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of hot water. Stir from time to time to blend the melting chocolate and butter until smooth. Remove from the heat. Add the vanilla extract, then stir in the warm water and the caster sugar. Continue to mix until the mixture is smooth. Whisk the egg yolks into the chocolate mixture, then fold in the flour making sure there are no lumps.

Whisk the egg whites in a spotlessly clean bowl with a pinch of cream of tartar until it reaches soft peaks. Keep an eye on the whites as they whip to ensure they do not become too stiff and grainy. Fold one quarter of the whisked egg whites into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Gently fold the remaining egg white into the mixture until completely blended, being careful not to knock all the air out. Pour the mixture into the pie dish. Pour boiling water into the roasting tin to come halfway up the side of the dish.

Bake for 10 minutes, then lower the heat to 160°C/325°F/Gas Mark 3. Bake for a further 20 minutes. The pudding will be set on top but still soft and somewhat molten underneath. Remove the roasting tray and pudding from the oven and allow to sit for 10 minutes.

To serve: Lightly dust the pudding with icing sugar. The pudding can be held in a warm place for up to 1 hour. Serve warm with softly whipped cream or crème fraîche.

White Soda Bread recipe @Ballymaloe Co.Cork ❤️

INGREDIENTS

Preheat the oven to 250deg C

Makes 1 loaf

450g (1lb, 31/2 cups) plain flour
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
300-600ml (1/2 – 1 pint, 1 1/4 – 2 1/2 cups) sour milk or buttermilk

METHOD

Sieve the dry ingredients. Make a well in the centre.

Pour in all the milk at once. Using 1 hand, with your fingers stiff and outstretched like a claw, stir in a full circular movement from the centre to the outside of the bowl in ever increasing circles. The dough should be softish, not too wet and sticky. When it all comes together, turn it out onto a well-floured work surface. Wash and dry your hands. Tidy it up and flip over gently. Pat the dough into a round, about 4cm deep.

Cut a deep cross on the loaf and prick in the four corners.

Bake in the oven for 15 minutes then turn down to 200deg C for 30 minutes until cooked. If you are in doubt, tap the bottom of the bread, when it is cooked it will sound hollow. Cool on a wire rack.

Tip! Soda breads are best eaten on the day they are made, but are still good the next day.

Spotted Dog

Follow the recipe above adding: 1 dessert spoon of sugar, 100g sultanas, 1 egg.

Add the sugar and the sultanas with the flour and drop the egg in with the milk before missing. Spotted dog is also called railway cake in some parts of Ireland.

Stripy Cat

Follow the spotted dog recipe replacing the sultanas with 75g of roughly chopped best quality chocolate.
