100% Irish lamb

Packed full of flavour, our butterflied leg of lamb is the ultimate spring lunch centrepiece. This boneless joint is marinated in lamb stock, mint, garlic and seasoning and topped with a lamb butter for flavour and succulence.

The finishing touch? A garlic, lemon and herb drizzle that complements the lamb perfectly. Not only does the roasting joint taste amazing, it’s also a doddle to carve, as it’s boneless – win-win!

Spring chicken

Serve up a Sunday lunch the whole family will love by picking up an M&S Select Farms Oakham chicken. Coat the skin in butter, thyme and garlic and stuff the chicken with garlic cloves, more thyme and half a lemon. Roast according to the pack instructions, ensuring it’s cooked through and the skin is golden and crispy. Serve with roasted baby potatoes and spring greens.

Standout sides

Sweet carrots

Steam carrots and top with butter and thyme, or roast with honey and rosemary until sticky and golden

Winning roasties

For perfect potatoes, peel, boil, drain and allow to dry, then add to a baking pan of hot oil with garlic and herbs. Shake, then roast until golden and crisp

Gorgeous green beans

Simply blanch beans in boiling water until tender. For extra crunch and flavour, top with toasted flaked almonds and lemon zest

Prosecco and rhubarb pud

Looking for the ultimate ending to your family Easter Sunday lunch? Top our mini meringue nests with lemon curd, cream and prosecco-poached rhubarb.

For the rhubarb, simply cut the stalks at an angle into bite-size pieces and add to a pan. Cover in our Conte Priuli Oro prosecco and add a sprinkling of sugar and a splash of water. Simmer over a low heat until the rhubarb is cooked but still holds its shape. Construct your mini pavlovas by adding a layer of lemon curd, whipped cream and the rhubarb.

Take this dessert to the next level by serving with a rhubarb prosecco cocktail to toast the long weekend. Simply blitz some cooked rhubarb in a food processor and add it to a glass of prosecco with a sliced rhubarb garnish.

Top tip: the rhubarb can be swapped for frozen berries. Simply place these in a pan with a splash of water and sugar, then stew until soft and sweet.
