lamb with ginger sauce
Prep:
10 mins
Cook:
20-30 mins
Serves:
4
method:
Pre-heat the oven to 220°C/425°F/Gas 7.
1
Brush the racks of lamb with the oil and then with the ginger syrup, season with salt and pepper. Place in a roasting tin and roast in the oven for 20 minutes for medium, slightly pink, lamb or 25–30 minutes for well done. Turn the meat over if the top is browning too much.
2
Meanwhile, to make the sauce, heat the butter in a pan. When melted, add the shallots and cook over a medium heat for 5 minutes until softened.
3
Add the stock, raisins and stem ginger and bring to the boil, simmer for 10 minutes.
4
Blend the arrowroot with 2 tablespoons water, add to the pan and simmer, stirring until thickened.
5
Remove the lamb from the oven, cover with foil and allow to rest in a warm place for 5 minutes (this allows all the juices to settle back into the meat keeping it moist). Stir the juices from the roasting pan into the sauce.
6
Transfer the lamb to a board and carve into cutlets. Serve with sauce and a selection of steamed baby vegetables.
