Preparation:
This recipe comes from Jean Charest's mother-in-law,
Lisette Dionne. "It must be Canadian lamb with lots of
garlic, cooked rare, along with potato casserole layered
with Emmental cheese from the St.-Benoit-du-Lac
monastery in my region." Jean Charest is one of the
front runners of the Conservative leadership candidates,
one of whom will be our next prime minister.
Inset garlic slivers into lamb. Rub with oil, then herb
mixture. cover with foil and refrigerate 2-3 hours to
allow flavours to penetrate the meat. Roast in a
preheated 400F oven 30-45 minutes depending on weight.
Serve with Gratin Dauphinois and Tomato Provencale:
(Tomatoes halved, sprinkled with the same herbs but
minus rosemary and bay leaf. Bake in 400F oven 10
minutes or till tende |
