Lamb and Pea Pasta
A slow cooked lam ragu is a thing of beauty then add the brightness of the peas and the heartiness of pasta. YUM. (Parmesan would also work well.)
This is another of Vince Garreffe's recipes that he has allowed me to Thermomix up (just slightly). Thanks Vince. If you are not from Perth, and have no idea who he is, go and have a good read HERE. He is Perth's own big hearted celebrity butcher who has risen countless amounts of money for Lifeline WA with his generosity of spirit. He has literally saved 100's of lives through this effort. Once you have met Vince, you are not likely to forget who he is!
This recipe appears in its original form in his cookbook, sales of which also help Lifeline. So head over to his site and get your copy.
In the meantime, give this a whirl. You won't regret it!
