Degeneration!

A quiet family day, and the first Mothers' Day for many a year that my brother and I have both been at home together to celebrate with my Mum.

Chef is back in fighting form and spent the day in the kitchen creating today's feast:

Salad of pickled golden beetroot, charred broccoli, watercress and goat's cheese

*****

Green chilli mac and cheese OR Roast leg of lamb with anchovies (Gasconnade)
Roast potatoes
Cavalo nero
Glazed carrots
Roasted red kuri squash

*****

All accompanied by fizzy Crème de Bourgogne as aperitif (a Mother's Day gift from a thoughtful cat!), a white Australian Riesling, a red Australian Shiraz Viognier, and a sweet Monbazillac to finish.

As you can imagine, we have now all sunk into a state of total degeneration!!
