  1. BUTTERY POTATOES

    Place the halved baby potatoes in a pot (with a lid) 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 and seasoning. Replace the lid and shake the pot until the butter is melted. Cover and set aside.

  2. MINT SALSA VERDE

    In a small bowl, combine the chopped capers, the chopped mint, ½ the chopped parsley, the vinegar (to taste), the mustard, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning. Alternatively, place all the ingredients in a blender (optional) and pulse until combined.

  3. LOVELY 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 and the grated garlic. Remove from the pan, season, and rest for 5 minutes.

  4. PEAS PLEASE

    Boil the kettle. Submerge the peas in boiling water until plump, 2-3 minutes. Drain and set aside in a salad bowl. Add the buttery potatoes, the chopped gherkins, the crumbled feta, the remaining parsley, and seasoning. Toss to combine.

  5. LET’S SALSA!

    Plate up the tender lamb chop topped with the mint salsa verde. Side with the potato & pea salad. Enjoy, Chef!
