I love cooking and there are many recipes with which I have an affiliation but this is THE meal that just speaks to me of my heritage. It reminds me of the Australian working class people, for whom lamb the only meat they could afford and who only had chicken at Christmas. For my mum and Nan, every Sunday was lamb roast.
