Lamb racks crumbed with carbonara beetroot pasta and vegetables
Went to the Glen Shopping centre with my sister. Bought a lot of Chinese New Year biscuits, sponge cake and some more packets of curry paste. Then went to a nearby stall browsing to see if I can get panettone.
Found a few different types of dried flavoured pasta and this beetroot noodles type pasta caught my eyes. Bought it to try to see is there really beetroot and not just the red colouring. Using the leftovers two lamb rack, baby spinach and some broad beans.
This time my lamb rack is coated with cayenne, oregano and breadcrumb. I am practising to perfect my carbonara sauce which I have browse and seen on you tube. I know it’s not presentable, but my focus is perfecting carbonara sauce, and making crumbed lamb racks. Glad it’s taste like beetroot. Dinner is ready, comforting and delicious. Let’s cook!!!!
