We will take ourselves to Sicily right at the beginning of spring and prepare a typical menu that appears on Sicilian tables to celebrate the new season. We will start with a risotto of artichokes, roast a leg of lamb flavored only with fresh herbs, lemon, garlic and olive oil. Our lamb will be accompanied by roasted fresh asparagus and potatoes. To crown our celebration, we will make a beautiful cassata that is typically prepared to celebrate Easter in Palermo. This is a beautiful dessert that looks so difficult to make, but I will share the secrets of how to prepare it.
