Have I mentioned how much I like lamb? You wouldn't believe that I didn't eat much meat growing up, and ate none at all between the ages of 18 and 21 All those statements are true, and now I really enjoy eating lamb.
Most of the time I cook, but every so often I like to take advantage of some of the amazing fresh produce shops in my area. I really like the butcher in the Canberra Centre, City Select Meats. They have an amazing selection of sausages (I've tried a few) and some great simple semi-ready meals. By 'semi-ready' I mean mini roasts, or kebabs, or lamb parcels.
The advantage of buying semi-ready meals individually? G and I can choose different flavour combinations!
I still don't 'dine on swine' as a general rule. That includes bacon. Some people do not believe me when I say that pork and bacon are the same, and I don't tend to eat it. I have eaten little scerricks of jamon in Spain or crispy pancetta crumbled on top of a spicy tomato risotto, but, as a general rule, I stay away from pork.
This means I avoid all the semi-ready meals that include bacon. I am not a huge fan of fruit + meat or cinnamon in practically any form!
I chose a red curry lamb parcel and G had a mulled wine parcel - currants, cinnamon and red wine. The only thing I would eat of all those ingredients? The lamb!
yum yum yum- i love fruit and meat together! All the more for me...
