This lamb recipe is easy, delicious, and looks fancy, but effortless. Prepare a marinade with garlic, anchovy, Dijon mustard and olive oil, then rub it on the rack of lamb and roast with radishes to a perfectly juicy and tender medium-rare. Lamb rack is usually served at rare or medium-rare, but you surely do medium. Like with all other meats, you'll want to let the lamb rack rest for 10 minutes before carving to ensure that all the juices stay locked in. Sweet and succulent smashed roasted radishes make the perfect accompaniment to this tender, juicy herb crusted rack of lamb.

Chicken Provençal

A delicious and simple recipe for the classic Chicken Provençal, a one-pan dinner made with bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs, green olives, capers and lemons in a luscious white wine sauce flavoured with herbs de Provence. Chicken Provençal is ready in an hour, making it a great dinner option any night of the week. Serve with a green salad, lots of crusty bread for sopping up that delicious garlicky pan sauce, and a glass of wine, if you'd like.
Herbs de Provence is an aromatic, all-purpose mixture of dried herbs and spices in the Provence region of France, which traditionally includes rosemary, thyme, marjoram, oregano, basil, tarragon and bay leaf. However, there is no standard recipe for this Provençal herb blend. The mixture varies depending on the preferences of the manufacturers or chefs. Herbs de Provence sold outside of France usually include lavender while traditional French blends and those sold in France typically do not. The reason for this is probably that many people associate Provence with lavender fields and the addition of this herb was and is considered to boost sales.

A delicious braided yeast bread with hazelnut and poppy seed fillings. Almonds or walnuts can be used instead of hazelnuts. If desired, you can also add some raisins or apples into the poppy filling. The preparation is quite simple. The three main components are the yeast dough, the poppy seed filling and the nut filling. While the yeast dough is rising, you can prepare fillings, which saves time and is very practical. Or you can prepare the filling one day and the dough the next day.
Mohnstriezel has its roots in European baking traditions, particularly in countries such as Austria, Germany, Hungary and Czechia. Originally intended as a festive treat for Christmas and Easter, over the years it has found its way into everyday life and is now enjoyed all over the world. In addition to the classic poppy seed filling, there are numerous variations of poppy seed strudel. It can also be filled with jam, other nuts, raisins or chocolate. This allows you to adapt the recipe entirely to your preferences and the season.

Richly caramelized oxtails are simmered low and slow with vegetables in a wine sauce until the meat comes off the bones. It can be eaten on its own or served mashed potatoes (cauliflower puree if you are on keto), bread dumplings and pasta.
A ragoût is essentially the same as a stew, except that most recipes for ragout are originally French, and often chunks of meat and vegetables cooked together at a low heat for a few hours until tender. But it also can be made with fish or just vegetables. A ragù is an Italian pasta sauce that is usually made with minced meat and/or vegetables.
