  1. SILKY MASH

    Place the Potato pieces into a pot of salted water. Bring to the 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.

  2. CHIPOTLE ONIONS

    Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the sliced Onion until caramelised, 8-10 minutes (shifting occasionally). At the halfway mark, add a sweetener. In the final 1-2 minutes, add the chopped chipotle chillies (to taste). Remove from the heat and season.

  3. LAMB CHOPS

    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.

  4. Cabbage & CARROT

    In a bowl, toss together the sliced Cabbage, the grated carrot, the lemon juice (to taste), and seasoning.

  5. GRAB THE PLATES

    Plate up the buttery, creamy mash, side with the chipotle onions, and top with the lamb chop. Serve alongside the lemon Carrot & Cabbage. Dig in, Chef!
