“Every country possesses, it seems, the sort of cuisine it deserves, which is to say the sort of cuisine it is appreciative enough to want. I used to think that the notoriously bad cooking of the English was an example to the contrary, and that the English cook the way they do because, through sheer technical deficiency, they had not been able to master the art of cooking. I have discovered to my stupefaction that the English cook that way because that is the way they like it."

Lamb Chops With Orange Sauce Recipe

Recipe Ingredients:

1/2 cup unsweetened orange juice
1 tbsp orange rind
1/2 tsp dried thyme
8 lean lamb chops, about 1/2 inch thick
1 tbsp low calorie margarine
1 cup fresh mushrooms, sliced
1/2 cup dry white wine

Recipe Instructions:

In a shallow baking dish, combine the orange juice, orange rind, thyme and pepper to taste; mix well. Trim all excess fat from lamb chops and place in a baking dish. Spoon orange juice mixture over chops; cover and refrigerate 3-4 hours, occasionally turning chops. Coat a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray; place over medium high heat until hot. Remove the chops from the marinade, reserving marinade; arrange in the skillet. Brown chops on both sides, remove from skillet and drain. Reduce heat to medium and melt margarine. Add mushrooms and saut‚ until just tender. Stir in reserved marinade and wine and bring to a boil. Return lamb chops to skillet; cover, reduce heat and simmer 10-12 minutes or until sauce is reduced to about 1/2 cup. Transfer lamb chops to platter, spoon orange sauce on top and serve.

“This root [the potato], no matter how much you prepare it, is tasteless and floury. It cannot pass for an agreeable food, but it supplies a food sufficiently abundant and sufficiently healthy for men who ask only to sustain themselves. The potato is criticised with reason for being windy, but what matters windiness for the vigorous organisims of peasants and labourers?”
~ Denis Diderot (1713-1784) L'Encyclopedie (1751-1772)
