Prepare a mom friendly brunch that will have her telling all her friends what amazing offspring she has. Start brunch with a large bowl of fresh fruit and crepes dusted with powdered sugar. Then serve mom a crust less quiche accompanied by warm fresh baked rolls. Don’t forget to fill that special tea pot with stepping hot loose leaf tea such as an English breakfast or an Earl Grey.

Now sit back and relax enjoying your cup of tea and wonderful company in your presence today. As your day with mom comes to an end remind her how much you love and appreciate her and that every day with your mother is mothers’ day to you.

Once cooked place to one side and leave for 15 minutes to absorb juices. Take roasting tin and all juices and filter through a fine sieve. This is what you will use for stock. Put this back into a pan and reduce down, you may need to add a little cornflour to thicken depending on how you like your stock. The Greeks like it quite thick, I'm told by my www.helensrecipes.com staff.

You can prepare side dish at any time as you only need to reheat it for a few minutes. In a blender put all side dish ingredients and roughly blend (blitz function) - note this should not be a puree - you need to keep some texture.

I love to serve this dish with baby new boil potatoes which have been left to cool. Put a few in middle of a plate and place some lamb on top, then drizzle pea and mint around plate.

If it's dinner for family I would suggest some roast potatoes, lamb covered in thick gravy and pea and mint as a side.

Enjoy!
