Peter Gordon – Recipes from Homeland Community Days
Combined with a unique marinade highlighted by Peter Gordon’s trademark kawakawa flavouring, this easy, one-pan lamb dish will surely become a firm favourite. Kawakawa is a common native shrub easily found in the bush or self-seeded in home. The serve size is for two people with the intention of having delicious leftover lamb for the next day. The broccolini and roast stuffed capsicum side dishes can easily be doubled to serve four. These recipes were created by Peter Gordon for the Homelands ‘Cooking for Older Adults’ Community Day.
