This is a finger-licking-good pudding. The dates add a lovely layer of sweetness and the caramel sauce oozes throughout to make it truly sticky! Doesn’t matter the type of weather, this little beauty will go down a treat with those who love dates and caramel. You can make it a couple of days ahead of time and keep It in the fridge or even freeze it, defrost overnight in the fridge and reheat gently in the oven when you are ready to indulge!
I never used to eat rice until I discovered Ottolenghi! He is a magician with rice! This recipe is adapted from the master himself and is packed with flavour and absolutely delicious! A real winner! It features regularly at Notachef’s Table perfectly paired with slow-roasted, juicy lamb shoulder. Oh the juices from the shoulder are glorious with the sweetness of this rice!
My absolute favourite thing to make for Sunday lunch at Notachef’s Table is a lamb shoulder. It is so juicy and tender and reminds me of Christmas in my granny’s kitchen when I always tried to get my hands on the crispy leg of lamb fat when she wasn’t looking! I often got wrapped over the knuckles instead! It’s the season for roasts and a perfect dish for the holidays when you have lots of people around. I love serving my lamb with an interesting rice dish like Jerusalem-spiced rice and a couple of salads.
I love meatballs! They are great as finger food and our kids love them too! Double bonus! These lamb meatballs with jewels of feta and a drizzle of pomegranate molasses are absolutely mouthwatering: perfect as part of a tapas meal or in a lunchbox for work or school. I usually make a couple of batches and freeze them in portions for those evenings where I just don’t feel like cooking. Yes, believe it or not, that actually happens to me too!
