I absolutely love lamb. I use it in most of the curries that I cook these days, although it's a bit on the pricey side compared to other meats, it's well worth spending a couple of quid extra. I also use it in stir frys and prefer Shepherds pie to a cottage pie. Not had a Sunday roast of lamb for a while now, so that's on the cards for next weekend now |

The lamb prices at Morrison’s seem to be incredibly good Ace, apart from lamb mince, that’s silly price. |

My butcher does me a good deal on minced lamb as I've been using him for about 15 years now. I generally have about £20 worth and he minces it while I go and get ma veg off another stall in the Market Hall. I used to go to Morrisons when I lived out in the sticks and had a car, but it's about 5 miles away now and about a 15 min walk after that if I go on the bus. |

"Bloody gorgeous it is, I’ve got some ribs frying away and the smell is wonderful.
What’s your favourite, meat, cut and method of cooking?"
Full leg of lamb straight onto an oven rack. Firstly insert rosemary and garlic in slivers. Put a dish of potatoes under the rack.
Don't both with veg, eat like Henry the 8th, do some lamb gravy but don't invite anyone.
Kebabs from left overs next day.
Won't get much change from £20 but it's worth it. Cook it slow and low. |

Flank steak is great, used to dirt cheap but getting a bit more expensive now some celebrity chefs have sung its praise.
With any steak, I stick it in a bag and cover with coarse rock salt for about an hour, then wash it off and cook.
The salt starts to tenderise and break down the tough meat.
Cook it on a real high heat to get it well cooked on the outside and pink inside..
Mmm, mmm, mmmm.. |

I like black beef using skirt beef, another cheap cut.
Slice into thin strips across the grain and fry in an extremely hot pan until it’s virtually black then bung in some soy sauce. I have that with garlic and blackened fried French beans. |

I can't stand lamb at all, it's so fatty and the smell makes me gag.
I do love chicken and pork though. I'm not especially bothered about beef.
I only eat turkey at Christmas.
I like chicken and pork cooked simply and fairly plain.
A chicken is cooking now and smells lovely, having it with new potatoes, lots of veg (including home grown tomatoes) and gravy.
I buy meat from Tesco as i can't tell the difference in meat from there or a local butchers plus i get a lot more for my money. I don't enjoy cooking but i am good at it. |

Try cabbage and onions then. chiffonade a cabbage (savoy is the best) and fry quickly until dark green. Mix that up with loads of caramelised onions and garlic. |
