Cooking Instructions:
  • 1. TO COOK THE LAMB:

    Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over a high heat. Remove the lamb leg steaks from their packaging and pat dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and pepper. Once the pan is hot add the lamb steaks to the pan and sear on each side for 3 mins for pink lamb, a little longer for more cooked. Remove from the heat and rest for 1-2 mins. Spread salsa verde over the lamb and then slice steak into 2-3 pieces.

  • 2. TO COOK THE VEGETABLES:

    Remove the mint leaves from the stalk and thinly slice them. Stir into the mascarpone with a pinch of salt. Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat and once hot add the steamed kumara. Sauté for 5-6 mins until kumara starts to brown. Stir in the peas and cook another 2 mins to heat through. Fold in the baby kale to wilt slightly and remove from the heat. Season with salt.

  • TO SERVE:

    Spread a little of the minted mascarpone on to the bottom of the plate. Top with kumara and greens. Arrange lamb pieces on top finishing with remaining minted mascarpone and salsa verde.
