CRISPY POTATOES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the halved baby potatoes on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
TOASTED
Place the chopped walnuts in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
ROSEMARY & GARLIC VEG
When the roast has 15-20 minutes remaining, coat the broccoli pieces, the garlic clove and the rinsed rosemary sprigs in oil. Add to the roasting tray and return to the oven for the remaining cooking time.
PREP
In a bowl, combine the mayo with the chopped peppers and seasoning. Set aside.
ZA’ATAR LAMB
Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the lamb dry with paper towel and season. When hot, sear the lamb until browned, 3-5 minutes (shifting as it colours). Remove from the pan and place on the roasting tray with the veg to finish cooking in the oven, 5-8 minutes. Remove from the oven and roll through the spice blend. Rest for 5 minutes before slicing and lightly seasoning.
FLAVOURED MAYO
When the roast is done, squeeze out the flesh from the roasted garlic cloves and discard the skin. Finely chop the flesh and mix through the red pepper mayo. Discard the rosemary sprigs before serving.
