If you mean the leaf then some of the world refers to that as cilantro and yes, cilantro is a great start to a relish.green coriander
I wouldn't add the mint myself, it's not my flavour.
I believe you are thinking of leg-of'-lamb which is quite meaty and comes from the rear leg. It often includes the shank and hip, depending on the butcher.maybe I have my ends mixed up
Does anyone else like these things?

Every packet a complete surprise, though usually loaded with Garlic and Oil and Chilli.
I usually add an egg in the the final 2 minute cooking stage:
Quick and Easy, IMO. What's not to like?

There is a Chinese restaurant I know to be authentic which is a few hours away and I don't often get the chance to visit. Otherwise, ordinarily I don't react well to the sauce that comes with a Chinese omelette, especially as it gets cold. The omelette itself is fine. Here it's usually served with chips.Foo Yong
This was an interesting complement to "skirt steak", mentioned by Jacques Pepin -- I cook skirt steak in a Lodge pan...after the steak is done, sweat finely chopped mushrooms or onion in the remaining fat. When they are softened add a bit of water to deglaze and this confection:
3 or 4 garlic cloves and 4 anchovy filets, chopped fine
zest of a lime or lemon
juice of a half lime or lemon
reduce, and serve over the main course.

Since I am as bored as one can get from being in five day isolation, I gathered up enough energy to open that 100 oz can of tomato sauce and make some pizza sauce. As anyone knows, tastes vary but there are certain items that must appear in your sauce if you want it to taste like pizza sauce. And by pizza sauce, I mean the tomato version you are used to at your local take-out here in NA.
Tomato sauce
Italian seasoning
Fennel seed
Garlic
Onion
Paprika
Sage
Citric acid
Salt
Amounts are up to you. Just remember, when you're salting, hold off a bit as many ingredients also are salted and nothing worse than a salty pizza.
Beyond that it's up to you and it takes time to get the right balance. I tend to go a little wild.
I like to pre-moisten the dry ingredients for a few minutes. Put them on a pan and hit them with the plant mister then leave for five minutes.
Mix everything together in your stand mixer on low for five minutes. Let sit.
Take your dog for a walk and be gone for at least an hour.
Mix again for a couple minutes and taste.
Adjust as needed, taste again and bottle.
For example, with Italian seasoning I would be using a good half cup. Fennel same. The others, try what you like. I don't use fresh as I don't see the need nor the value. Dry is fine.
Time for a dog walk.

What I should have said was: Fennel dry roasted in a fry pan then ground fine in a spice mill.way ahead of you.
Oregano was already part of the Italian spice mix.
I was waiting for you.Perfect consistency
TBH, I wasn't happy yet. I have now cooked it to meld the flavours better and then put it in my 'Cal's A/C dinghy' to cool it and help warm the water a bit.

Last night was pan fried bream (aka bluegill) fresh out of the river, last of the green bean crop, and ’checkers’ frozen fries

Made grape jelly with the muscadine grapes that were planted not even 2 years ago, got 21 lbs of grapes which yielded 16 pints…..i was shocked at the yield for such young plants, next year maybe ill have enough to make wine (need 10 gallons grapes about 60lbs for enough to sufficiently fill a 6 gallon carboy.)
