It's an ordinary Wednesday evening, but you only live once, right? Tonight we had lamb fillet with baked root vegetables for dinner. Really luxurious and really, really good!
Lamb fillet in the oven
When cooking lamb fillet in the oven, it is important to use a thermometer. The lamb is perfect when taken out at 54 degrees centigrade. The meat is then wrapped in foil and left to "rest" for ten minutes to become perfect.
Oven-baked root vegetables
Potatoes, parsnips and carrots are fantastic in the oven, as are onions and whole small garlics. We like to buy those round little garlics that are just a single clove - they are very tasty and creamy when you bake them in the oven!
Accessories
Some ready-made hummus and a red wine (Bergström!) and dinner is complete... Wishing you a nice Wednesday evening!

Yummie, yummie. Here I am drooling. Lamb is my absolute favourite meat. Carpe diem, just as it should be done:-)

BP, glad you like lamb too! It's our absolute favourite meat too, and we usually choose it when we want something "extra".

Ditte, sometimes it's so easy to think "but why today?". But on the other hand, why not? You get the opportunities you get here in life.

Renate, it was too!

A very delicious meal even though I no longer eat meat myself. Such a meal should be enjoyed when you feel like it, regardless of the day of the week. The wine is a total novelty for me.

Steve, the wine is from the USA (a Swedish wine grower), bought at System but I'm not sure if it's available anymore. We thought it was a little extra fun because our surname is Bergström.

Yummy how good it looks! Tonight it is our turn to eat something good. I was away for five days over last weekend so now we have to take the opportunity.

We haven't learnt to eat lamb yet, but the other one looked good. we don't have a lamb aversion, but it's mostly game here, a bit random of course.

Inga M, oh but you eat so much delicious game! We also like game, but we do not have the same access... but lamb is also good!
