Saturday kitchen recipe from this morning in The AnswerBank: Recipes

I just caught a bit of a Rick stein recipe on Saturday Kitchen this morning but it doesn't seem to be on the website. Can't get much by googling either.

Hi shivvy

Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I couldn't find the recipe in any of his books so I have re-watched Saturday Kitchen and fast forwarded until he came on. This is what he said he used:

2 cloves garlic, crushed

Fresh Thyme (2-3 sprigs)

1 Bay Leaf

2 Peeled carrots

Peas

Olive oil

Fresh parsley chopped

Place beans in a pot with the shallots, garlic, thyme, bay leaf and carrots. Cover with water. Simmer gently and cook until the beans are soft. Strain them but keep the cooking liquid.

Put the beans back into the empty pot, slice the carrots into it and add some peas, olive oil and butter. Season with salt and pepper.

Pour the fat from the lamb away and place the tray on the hob. Add the cooking liquid from the beans into the pan and heat through. Strain into the bean mixture and put back on the heat and warm through. Add some chopped fresh parsley.

Carve the lamb and serve with the beans.

I am so sorry there are hardly any quantities but he kind of flies through it!
