I decide to do a full Irish meal this year for Saint Patricks Day. I invited over a few good friends to share in this endeavor. The main dishes comprised of soda bread, colcannon, and a nice bone in leg of lamb. For dessert I made a Guinness chocolate cupcake with Irish cream frosting. Of course there was Guinness beer, baileys Irish cream and Jameson Irish whiskey.
Here is the leg of lamb from the butcher.
Marinade with garlic and rosemary.
Roasted in oven until medium rare.
Soda bread that was cooked in my 12" cast iron skillet.
Colcannon. Which is mashed potatoes with bacon, cabbage and green onions. Oh just for reference 5 lbs is more than enough for 6 adults.
Forgot to take pictures of them frosted but they turned out pretty good.
Overall everything turned out great. May have to make this a yearly thing.
