Granny's Sunday (Roast Lamb) dinner

Steep peas overnight in packet tablet and boiling water. Peel potatoes and cut in half for boiling. Peel salad potatoes and keep whole for roasting. Peel carrots and chop into bite size circles. Cut up pamphery and wash all vegetables well in boiling water. Preheat oven to 180 degrees (fan assisted).

Wrap the lamb completely in foil and place on roasting tray for 2-2.5 hours.

Within last hour of lamb being ready is time enough to start on the rest. Boil potatoes, carrots, peas and pamphrey in salted boiling water in their own pots and turn down when ready. All will be done within half an hour. Add 1 tsp sugar to carrots and simmer if you like them sweet. For the roasties, deep fry in 180 degrees vegetable oil for 2-3 minutes then put into oven to keep warm if needed.

Take lamb out to rest and use juices for gravy. Add to pot and if not enough, tap up with boiling water. Bring to boil then add cold water/bisto mix and stir constantly until thickens. Drain pamphery in colander and press down with plate to get water out. Fry bacon on pan in a little oil and add pamphery and cook for few minutes to infuse the pamphery with the bacon flavour.
