Spring
Steamed fish with watercress butter, red potatoes and asparagus
This is spring in a dish – asparagus, watercress, new potatoes and steamed fish – simply prepared and well-flavoured. If you have a stacking steamer (I use a bamboo steamer; they’re available at little cost from Asian stores) you can cook everything in it.
Barbecued soy and ginger lamb with coriander potatoes
The barbecue is the perfect way to cook a butterflied leg of lamb. Have your butcher trim, split, and debone a whole leg for you.
Warm potato and smoked trout salad
Smoked salmon can be used instead of trout, if preferred. Note
Gnocchi with caramelised pumpkin and sage sauce
