Istruzioni
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C. On a large baking tray, toss the sweet potato cubes, carrot slices, and red onion wedges with 15ml of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- 2.Roast the vegetables for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and lightly caramelized at the edges.
- 3.While the vegetables roast, prepare the lamb. In a small bowl, mix together the cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, and cinnamon. Pat the lamb chops dry with a paper towel and rub the spice mixture generously over all sides.
- 4.Heat 15ml of olive oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Carefully place the lamb chops in the hot pan and sear for 3-4 minutes per side for a medium-rare finish. Adjust cooking time for your preferred doneness.
- 5.While the lamb cooks, prepare the sauce. In a small bowl, combine the finely chopped mint, parsley, 2 minced garlic cloves, the remaining 15ml of olive oil, and the lemon juice. Stir well and season with a pinch of salt.
- 6.Remove the lamb from the pan and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve the lamb chops hot with the roasted root vegetables, and drizzle the fresh herb sauce over everything.
