Dinner Party 1

Live Feed from my kitchen.
Very shortly these two beautiful pieces of meat will be taken out of the fridge to bring to room temperature (they have been marinated with black pepper/salt & olive oil); and just before they go into the oven at 5.30 pm SHARP, they will be covered with a herb crust. I'll rest the meat on some onions before roasting to create almost a roasting 'rack' and also for the onions to crisp and caramelise during roasting....

I was not happy with the first menu I made (how could I have missed out the grav lax??) so here is another one.
