Ingredients
Serves 6
- 6 x 180g Aussie lamb rumps
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 6 leaves cavolo nero
- 24 mini carrots
- 1 bunch of fresh mint
- 1 shallot (chopped finely)
- 1 celeriac
- 300ml double cream
- 3 tbsp whole grain mustard
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1-2 pinches ground nutmeg
- Olive oil
Method
Preparation
- Marinate the lamb with the garlic and olive oil season to taste, and set aside.
Celeriac Puree
- Blanch the celeriac until tender to eat, drain and leave for a few minutes. Place the celeriac in a blender.
- In the meantime, reduce the double cream and cook the cream for a few minutes until the colour is slightly yellow and thickens.
- Start the blender and add the cream little by little. Season with salt pepper and nutmeg, taste and set aside.
Mint Roasted Carrots
- Blanch the carrot shortly and cool in iced water.
- Once cooled, pat the carrots dry and season with salt and pepper, chopped mint and a teaspoon of olive oil. Marinate for a few minutes.
- In a frying pan, add a little olive oil and the finely chopped shallot. Without browning, sauté for a few minutes. Add the blanched and cooled carrots to the shallots and salute for a further few minutes. Finish carrots in the oven.
Cavolo Nero
- Clean the leaves and check the stems if needed a little trimming.
- Lightly the leaves in olive oil. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Ensure the leaves are not too dark.
Lamb Rumps
- If the lamb is wet from the marinade, dry the pieces with a little kitchen paper to soak up any excess.
- Season the lamb with salt and pepper.
- Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in an ovenproof frying pan and fry the lamb on all sides.
- Then place the lamb fat side down in the pan, and transfer to the oven for 5 to 8 minutes.
- Plate the meal and serve with Saucery red wine sauce.
