Roast Lamb with Herbed Breadcrumbs
- 400 grams Lamb or any meat you like
- 60 grams * Panko
- 20 grams * Herbs (Parsley, basil, coriander, rosemary, etc.)
- 1 *Egg yolk
- 3 tbsp *Olive oil
- 1 dash *Salt and pepper
- 1 clove *Garlic (grated)
- 2 tbsp *Fresh cream or milk
- 1 tsp Oil for the heatproof dish
- 1 tbsp Olive oil for the frying pan
- 1 tsp Mustard (Japanese mustard)
- 100 grams Ramps (or alpine leek)
- 50 grams Pine nuts
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 50 ml Olive oil
- 2 handfuls Panko
- 1 as required Pepper
- Mix all the * ingredients together in a bowl.
- Take the lamb out of the refrigerator.
- Preheat the oven to 200C.
- Heat a frying pan and add the oil.
- Make about 4 cuts in one side of the lamb pieces, and start cooking it from the side with the cuts.
- The meat is going to be roasted in the oven, so just brown in on both sides for 1-2 minutes or so.
- Salt and pepper the side with the cuts.
- Transfer the meat from the frying pan to a heatproof dish, oil and all.
- Spread the lamb with mustard.
- Press the Step 1 mixture of herbs and panko firmly on the surface of the lamb.
- Roast for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Check for doneness and take it out.
- If the panko has browned, it's good.
- This is a variation that uses alpine leek pesto: Put the alpine leek in a food processor with the salt, toasted pine nuts and olive oil and process.
- Grind in some pepper.
- Mix the panko and pesto together.
- Salt and pepper the meat lightly and brown in oil on both sides.
- Take the browned meat out of the pan and top generously with the pesto.
- Preheat the oven to 180C.
- Here is how it looks after roasting in a 180C oven for 20 minutes or so.
- Slice, and serve with sides (I serve them with country potatoes).
- I used 300 g of lamb for 2 servings.
- I changed the top photo to the version with alpine leek pesto.
- You can use regular basil pesto instead of alpine leek pesto.
