Lamb chops with salsa alla menta and potatoes

Chris Chen

In this dish, the classic combination of lamb with potatoes gets a zesty, mint kick with the addition of salsa alla menta.

Ingredients

Salsa alla menta

Method

1.Preheat oven to 150°C. Add potato to a saucepan of cold water, bring to the boil and cook until just tender (5-10 minutes). Drain.
2.For salsa alla menta, blend ingredients in a blender until smooth and season to taste.
3.Heat oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Season lamb chops to taste, add to pan and fry, turning once, until golden brown but still pink in the centre (3-4 minutes each side; fry in batches if there’s not enough space). Transfer to an oven tray and keep warm in oven.
4.Add potatoes to pan and fry, turning occasionally, until light golden (2-4 minutes). Serve potatoes and lamb topped with salsa alla menta and mint.
