Throw some tobasco or siracha sauce on, that'll spice it up.

Tabasco sauce was the magic ingredient for the MRE when I was probably in the Army Reserves back in the day. The first MREs didn't have that, and they appeared to be something to used as an offensive weapon, or at least a boobytrap I guess. But later on some of them included a tiny vial of the stuff which made them better.

I had a Vindaloo which in England is a very hot Indian curry in a resturant. I had to eat it with a teaspoon and went to work the following day but spent most of it on the toilet. I dont eat the really hot stuff any more but my brother still does and has been described by Indian waiters as "A very silly man"

This is one of my favourite dishes and great for those cold Sunday's in winter when the weather is crap outside!

Slow Roasted Lamb and Barley with Leeks and Carrots

Serves 4, 15mins to prepare, 2hrs 35mins to cook

4 Lamb shanks
3 medium leeks, trimmed and thickly sliced
12 shallots, peeled
3 medium carrots, scrubbed and thickly sliced
1 tbsp olive oil
175g (6oz) pearl barley
600ml (1 pint) lamb or chicken stock
300ml (10 fl oz) dry white wine or water
4 fresh bay leaves
25g (1oz) fresh flat leaf parsley, finely chopped

Roast potatoes to serve (I find cooked in goose or duck fat for a extra lovely taste!!!)

Preheat the oven to gas mark 7 or 220^oC or 200^oC if using a fan oven

Rub the lamb shanks in a little salt and pepper, place in a deep roasting tin and cook for 10 minutes.
Toss the leeks, shallots and carrots with the olive oil and add to the tin.
Return to the oven for a further 10 minutes, until the lamb and veg are starting to brown.

Reduce the oven temp to gas mark 4 or 180^oC or 160^oC for a fan oven.

Add the barley, stock, wine (or water if preferred) and bay leaves to the tin plus 200ml (7fl oz) of water.
Cover with foil and roast for 2hrs 15mins, or until the lamb is very tender and the barley has cooked through
At this point the tin will be quite heavy so take care lifting from the oven

Spoon into shallow bowls and scatter with the chopped parsley, add the potatoes!

The dish is not quite a stew but it isn't dry, either; there will be some liquid left in the tin after cooking. If - as in my case - the bone comes away from the meat clean then it's done perfectly!

Enjoy

What time should I come round for dinner

I'd have to make a party of it as I've had someone from Greece ask if they can come over for lunch!
