It’s true that lamb is one of the most wine-friendly of meats, as at home with red Bordeaux and Rioja as it is with the fruitier wines of the new world. But if you’re looking for a spot-on wine pairing it’s worth thinking just how - and for how long - you’re going to cook it.

Although the blossom is out it still feels a bit nippy at night so here's a light lunch to enjoy with a couple of friends that has a touch of spring about it but still includes a warming stew.

Loved the snack plate @honeyandsmokerestaurant - the Honeys idea of a snack is infinitely superior to mine! #guest although we had an argument about this and I only accepted on the basis that Itamar would let me take him out to lunch 😂Perfect lunch with @essexeating and @carolinepeel at @sonnystores which just always delivers the goods. Apple, fennel, Gorgonzola and walnut salad, pizzetta, duck tagliolini and rhubarb and pistachio meringue all for £25*. Plus they’re open all day. One of my favourite Bristol restaurants. * the pizzetta was strictly Dan’s but we shared. So 3 courses for 25 quid. Just brilliant! . #salad #pasta #meringue #rhubarb #pizzetta #lunch #bristol #sonnystoresFinally beginning to see the value of pressure cooking. An incredibly tasty lamb curry from @catherinephipps Modern Pressure Cooking in 15 minutes (+ marinating + depressurising but still much quicker than cooking it conventionally). I miss the process of watching the dish evolve but can’t deny it’s efficient. And cheap. . . #pressurecooker #pressurecooking #lamb #lambcurry #curryMothers Day flowers (thanks @wjjbeckett and @mariaallerc 😘😘) and loads of daffs on my #mothersday walk. Really is worth going up to @ashton_court_estate at this time of year especially when the sun is shining . . . #flowers #bouquet #daffodils #daffs #ashtoncourt Follow on Instagram
