• See 'Top Roast Tips!' (below). • Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Boil the kettle. Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water. • Cut baby potatoes into 0.5cm-thick rounds. Thinly slice garlic. • Cook potatoes in the boiling water, over high heat, until just tender, 4-6 minutes. Drain. • In a small bowl, combine cream (see ingredients), Dijon mustard (see ingredients), vegetable stock powder, grated Parmesan cheese, shredded Cheddar cheese and a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, trim green beans. Thinly slice onion (see ingredients). Pick thyme leaves. • Lightly score lamb rump fat in a 1cm criss-cross pattern. Season lamb all over with salt and pepper and place, fat-side down, in a large frying pan (no need for oil!). • Place pan over medium heat and cook undisturbed until golden, 10-12 minutes. • Increase heat to high and sear lamb on all sides for 30 seconds.
TIP: Starting the lamb in a cold pan helps the fat melt without burning
• Arrange sliced potatoes and garlic standing upright in a small baking dish (they should fit snugly so they stay upright). Season with salt and pepper. Pour over cream mixture, then gently shake the dish to coat potatoes. • Sprinkle with thyme and cover with foil. Bake until potatoes have softened, 14-16 minutes. • Remove foil, then return potatoes to oven. Bake until golden and the potatoes can be easily pierced with a fork, 10-12 minutes.
• Transfer lamb, fat-side up, to a lined oven tray. • Roast for 15-20 minutes for medium or until cooked to your liking. Remove from oven and rest for 10 minutes.
TIP: The meat will keep cooking as it rests!
• Meanwhile, wash and dry the frying pan, then return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook green beans, tossing, until tender, 4-6 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and allow to cool slightly. • Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook onion, stirring, until tender, 4-5 minutes. Remove pan from heat, then stir in red wine jus and a splash of water.
• Add baby kale to the green beans, along with a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. Toss to coat and season to taste. • Slice lamb. • Divide lamb rump, baby potato dauphinoise and green bean kale salad between plates. • Garnish salad with slivered almonds. • Serve lamb with red wine jus. Enjoy!
