Orange Dill Dressing
Mix all ingredients together and store in the fridge until ready to use

Pine nuts
Toast the pine nuts in a dry frying pan for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown
when toasting pinenuts be mindful of they will go from golden brown to burnt in a matter of seconds! Once cooked it’s best to remove them from the pan as the residual heat will continue to cook them in the pan 

Serve the Lamb Ragu with pasta of your choice and shaved parmesan cheese and Pine nuts on top to added that extra food happiness.
