  • “Jan Fabulous flavour!I took a couple of liberties with your recipe. I used a rack of lamb. Chopped up the onion and placed it on the bottom of the baking dish, spread out so the onions would catch all the glaze as it ran off the lamb, placed the lamb on top, Whipped the redcurrent jelly, lemon juice, zest, BBQ sauce & ketchup together (I did not use the chicken stock) and just before putting it in a 350F oven basted the lamb with the glaze.I basted it 3 times during the 35 minute cook time. It came out the most beautiful colour , pink inside and succulent. One thing I did was to remove the onions when they were carmelized before they became too dark and kept them warm.This is really tasty and I’ll make it again & again Thanks Jan”
