We like our lamb a little bit pink so to get that simply fry it for 4-5 minutes on each side on high heat. If you prefer yours a little more well done, fry for a couple of extra minutes on each side. Sweet, succulent lamb works perfectly with our easy to make redcurrant sauce and is paired with mash and roasted veggies. Save this for Sunday or enjoy for a midweek treat.
Boxes and ingredients are packed in facilities that handles Peanut, Nuts, Sesame, Fish, Crustaceans, Milk, Egg, Mustard, Celery, Soya, Gluten and Sulphites. Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.

Water for the Sauce
Preheat your oven to 200 degrees and bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with a pinch of salt. We will use this for the potatoes later. Trim the carrots and chop any particularly large ones in half, then pop on a baking tray along with the garlic cloves (don't peel the garlic!). Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then spread out and roast on the middle shelf of your oven for 25-30 mins.
While the carrots cook, peel the potatoes and chop into 2cm chunks. Add to the boiling water and boil until you can easily slip a knife through, 12-15 mins. Drain in a colander then return to the pan, off the heat. Meanwhile, pop the broccoli on another tray, drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, set aside. When the carrots are halfway through cooking, roast the broccoli on the top shelf of the oven until slightly crispy, 10-12 mins.
Meanwhile, halve, peel and finely slice the shallot. Roughly chop the chervil (stalks and all). Season the lamb steaks on both sides with salt and pepper. Important: Remember to wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on high heat. When really hot, lay in the lamb steaks and fry for 4-5 mins on each side, adjusting the heat slightly if necessary. Tip: We like our lamb medium-rare, if you like it well done just cook for a further 2 mins on each side. When cooked, remove to a plate and leave to rest, covered loosely with foil. Important: The lamb is safe to eat when the outside is cooked.
While the lamb rests, add a drizzle more oil to the pan if it looks dry and turn the heat to medium-low. Add the shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3-4 mins. Pour in the water (see ingredients for amount), red wine stock pot and redcurrant jelly. Bring to the boil, stirring to dissolve the stock and jelly, then lower the heat and simmer until thickened slightly, 4-5 mins.
Meanwhile, remove the roast garlic from their skins (careful, it's hot!). Add to the potatoes. Add the truffle zest and half the butter. Mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Slice the lamb into 4 strips. Remove the sauce from the heat and stir in the remaining butter and half the chervil. Serve the mash with the lamb on top, the veggies around and the sauce all over. Sprinkle on the remaining chervil. Enjoy!
