Lamb Leg Steak with a Maple Chevre Shiitake Sauce
I have to try and catch up I have made so many recipes lately and quite a few from recipezaar, and am getting behind on posting them all. I guess I will start with this zaar members recipe. I tried this one the other night, it was really good, I was very skeptical of how the flavours would come together, I only ended up making this as other reviews had stated it was good. Whilst I am sure it will not be for everybody I thought it was really yummy I did make this with a lamb fillet as this is what I had on hand and I also used less goats cheese as I felt the entire amount would be too overpowering. Anyway if you would like to read the other reviews of this recipe please click here.
