NZ - American Donut?
There's Dunkin Donuts outlets at most Westfield malls in Auckland. Outside of Auckland, it gets tricky!
In Wellington, the Mediterranean Food Warehouse in Newtown, every Saturday, makes Italian donuts. (For that matter, Il Forno, a cafe/bakery in Auckland, makes Italian donuts too - filled with cherry jam. Mmmm!)
But back to Wellington. The Courtenay Place New World is another American donut source. I don't know why, as none of the other New Worlds have the same thing, but go there and enjoy!
Lamb belly - recipe suggestions?
You are correct, this cut does have a few ribs in it. And that recipe sounds like just the sort of thing I am looking for.
I have also learned that another name for LAMB BELLY is BREAST OF LAMB. When I search for "breast of lamb" recipes, I get lots of options. The mystery is solved!
Lamb belly - recipe suggestions?
The good news is that any butcher that's got fresh leg of lamb and lamb chops can get you lamb belly/lamb flaps.
The bad news is that I don't have a charcoal barbecue grill, so that recipe isn't the best for me, I'm afraid. It does look fantastic, but "no grill" is a showstopper. I've been trying to find a recipe for home-cured lamb BACON from lamb belly...wish me luck!
Lamb belly - recipe suggestions?
Hi from New Zealand, everyone...I'm picking up a whole lamb from our local butcher soon. The lamb was a gift from a friend, and I've paid the butcher to turn it into butterflied leg of lamb, lamb chops, etc. I am getting two big pieces of lamb belly, known down here as "lamb flaps". Does anyone have any suggestions about how to cook lamb belly? I've even heard rumors of lamb bacon being cured from lamb bellies.
