PARBOILED POTATOES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the baby potatoes in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until easily pierced with a fork but still firm, 15-20 minutes. Drain and set aside.
ADD SOME SPICE & CHEESE
Spread the parboiled potatoes on a lightly greased roasting tray. Using a fork, gently press down, splitting the skin, but keeping them in one piece. Coat in oil, the potato spice, and the cheese. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 25-30 minutes.
CREAMY SALAD
While the potatoes are in the oven, combine the cucumber half-moons, the shredded leaves, the creamy tangy sauce, and seasoning in a bowl. Set aside.
BUTTERY LAMB
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the lamb dry with paper towel. When hot, sear the lamb until browned, 3-4 minutes per side. In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter. Remove from the pan, season, and rest for 5 minutes.
SET THE TABLE
