Method

1.Preheat oven to 180°C. Boil beetroot in a saucepan over medium-high heat until tender (10-15 minutes); drain. Peel and halve; set aside.
2.Meanwhile, season lamb all over. Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat; cook lamb, turning until browned all over (5-6 minutes). Transfer to oven tray and bake until cooked to medium (15 minutes); rest, loosely covered with foil, for 5 minutes.
3.For dressing, whisk ingredients in a bowl; season to taste.
4.Thinly slice lamb. Combine endive in a bowl with shallot, add half dressing; toss to coat. Add beetroot, walnuts, arils and goat’s cheese; toss to combine. Divide lamb and salad among plates; drizzle with remaining dressing.

Try seasoning the lamb with cumin, ras el hanout or baharat before cooking to dial up the flavour.
