Ingredients

  • 4x180g lamb loin fillets
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley leaves
  • 1 orange, zest removed and segmented
  • 2 tbsp chopped pecans
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 cups cooked and roughly crushed potatoes
  • Bunch cavolo nero, de-stemmed, wilted and drained
  • Handful of wild rocket
  • Handful of picked watercress
  • 1 cup lamb stock
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 1 tsp butter

Method

· Chop together the parsley, orange zest and pecans to make the gremolata.

· Reduce the lamb stock and wine by a third; just before serving, finish with the butter and season to taste.

· Rub the lamb with oil and season, sear in a hot pan on all sides, then allow to cool. Smear the top lightly with the mustard and press on the gremolata.

· Roast in a 180C oven until pink, about 8-10 minutes, rest.

Toss together the orange segments, watercress and rocket.

· Mix together the roughly crushed potatoes and finely chopped cavolo nero, warm, season and place in the centre of the plate.

· Cut the rested lamb in half on a slight angle and position leaning against itself on the potato, top with the orange salad. Dress the plate with the lamb glaze.
