I hope you all love a lamb roast! (Especially if you are Australian!!) We love a lamb roast in this house and this is modelled on an absolutely amazing meal I had at Easter time in Victoria at the lovely Tokar Estate winery.
Whilst lamb is very traditional at Easter time in many cultures, in Australia we tend to eat it year round, but especially in spring time, so even though the weather seems to remain stubbornly cold in Perth, this is the perfect time to get your lamb roast on! Serve it up with all the wonderful spring greens you can find that are in season as well. I love that this takes care of itself. Set and forget.
Happy dinnering!
