Lamb Chops infused in Herb Oil and Citrus Scents

I could of not picked a more perfect lamb chop recipe to share with you this Easter...The weather is blissfully beautiful here in sun drenched Kenya and I'm sharing an all time favourite to celebrate with you..In this recipe I feature one of my favourite infused oils coming out of Mountain Oil, produced here in the heart of Timau at the foothills of Mt Kenya. The Herb Oil is packed to the seams with beautifully scented herbs that are going to work so well with my lamb...thyme..rosemary - you can smell the powerful infusion as you unscrew the lid of the bottle and I can already tell this is a very well preserved and developed oil. I'm excited to cook with this as I know it truly is the real thing and not a oil that has skimped on flavour - simply seen by the quantity of herbs clearly on view in the bottle...Give it a try and let me know how this simply, easy but mouth watering recipe comes out for you! #lambchops #outdoorcooking #grilling #perfectkitchensetting

Vanilla custard Cream, Buttery Biscuit Crumb and Double Chocolate Layer Dessert

This recipe was made under twenty minutes and was created as my two little ones pleaded, begged and bribed and almost threatened all sorts of crazies until I made them a treat. Who can resist these little clever, puppy eyed little dealmakers? So this actually has turned into quite an impressive number and I wouldn't be too embarrassed to serve this to a more 'mature' crowd. I doubt even a serious food connieseur is going to have any issues with layers of vanilla cream, buttery crumbly biscuit and a thick lush layers of milk and dark chocolate layers...somehow life just isn't complete with a scoop or slice of some sweet sin!!!! #chocolate#is#the#source#of#happiness #desserts #puddings #sweetandsinful
