Method

Ingredients

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the peeled, halved Nicola potatoes in a pot of salted water and bring to a gentle boil. Parcook for about 8–10 minutes until just tender but still firm. Drain well and let them steam dry in the pot for a minute.

2. In a small bowl, bloom the saffron by adding the threads to the warm water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes. Stir the bloomed saffron into the melted ghee.
Toss the warm, drained potatoes with the saffron-infused ghee, salt, and torn sage leaves, ensuring they are evenly coated.

3. Spread them out in a single layer on a baking tray.
Roast in the preheated oven for 35–45 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and crisp on the edges. Serve hot, garnish with extra crispy sage leaves if desired.

4. Place the lamb crown roast on a roasting tray.
Rub the lamb all over with olive oil, coriander, salt and lemon juice, making sure to coat the meat evenly.

5. Roast for about 25–30 minutes, alongside the potatoes, for medium-rare or 35–40 minutes for medium, depending on the size of the roast. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy: aim for 52–55°C for medium-rare and 60°C for medium.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for at least 10–15 minutes before slicing. Keep covered with foil until serving.

6. For the fritters: mix the flour and baking powder together. Season with salt. Whisk the eggs and milk together and whisk into the flour. Add the za’atar and stir through the Woolworths Edamame & Black Rice Salad.
