Marinated Lamb Popsicles With Fenugreek Cream Curry
“Wine-marinated lamb popsicles is our signature dish at Vij’s — we would be in trouble if we ever tried to take it off the menu,” says chef and restaurant co-owner Vikram Vij. “We know it’s a big source of comfort to our customers, and a warm hug in the form of familiar foods is such a tonic right now. That’s why I’ve also found myself cooking this dish at home. The great thing about the sauce is that it works with a variety of meats, fish and vegetables, so it can turn anything into a luxurious, creamy, decadent curry.”

Brown Butter Mashed Potatoes With Fried Sage
These mashed potatoes are so good you — and your guests — will be reaching for seconds. Pro tip: for extra-smooth potatoes, put them through a ricer after cooking (before adding butter and milk). When making brown butter, use a pot with a light-colored bottom so it’s easier to tell when butter begins to change color.
