CARROT WEDGES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the carrot wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the cumin seeds, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven for 25-30 minutes until cooked through and crisping up, shifting halfway.
SOME PREP
In a bowl, combine the cucumber pieces, ½ the picked mint, the lemon juice (to taste), and seasoning.
GLAMB-OROUS
When the carrots have 10-15 minutes remaining, place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the lamb chop dry with paper towel. When the pan is hot, sear the chop, fat-side down, for 1-2 minutes until crispy. Then, fry for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked to your preference. During the final minute, baste with a knob of butter (optional). Remove from the pan, season, and rest for 5 minutes.
HIT OF FRESHNESS
Add the rinsed green leaves and a drizzle of oil to the bowl with the cucumber. Toss until combined.
