Ingredients

  • Olive oil
  • Green leaves, for serving
  • For the sauce, mix:

  • 3 T tomato sauce
  • 1 T chutney
  • 1 T balsamic vinegar
  • 1 t worcester sauce
  • 1 t soya sauce
  • 1 t hot english mustard
  • 1/2 cup dry red wine
  • For the potato chunks:

  • A few sprigs rosemary

Method

try{ clicky.init(100600915); }catch(e){}Preheat the oven to 220°C.

Brown the chops in a minimum of oil in a pan over a medium to high heat – start first with the edge of fat.

Transfer to a baking tray and pour over the sauce. Bake for 5 minutes, or until just cooked and still pink. Allow to rest for at least 5 minutes.

 

Cut the potatoes into cubes. Moisten with oil and season with salt. Turn onto a shallow baking tray.
Add a few sprigs of rosemary. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden and crusty.

 

Serve with the saucy lamb chops and fresh greens.
