MASH
Place the potato pieces in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until soft, 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Add a knob of butter (optional) and a splash of water or milk (optional). Mash with a fork, season, and cover.
TOAST
Place the almonds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
LAMB
Return the pan to 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.
GRAVY
Boil the kettle. Dilute the stock with 100ml of water. Return the pan to medium heat with all the pan juices. When hot, fry the grated garlic and the chopped rosemary until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the flour and mix until combined. Slowly whisk in the diluted stock until there are no lumps. Simmer until thickening, 2-3 minutes. Add a splash of water if it’s too thick. Remove from the heat and season.
QUICK SALAD
In a salad bowl, dress the rinsed green leaves with a drizzle of olive oil and season. Add the toasted almonds and toss to combine.
TIME TO EAT
