Introduction
Our lamb tomahawk chops are succulent rib meat with the bone left in, giving the meat an extra depth of flavour. Perfect for enjoying alongside a fresh pea shoot salad in this simple, 20 minute meal.Method
- Remember to remove your chops out of the packaging, pat dry and bring to room temperature
- Pre heat your griddle or heavy based frying pan until it sizzles when you add a drop of oil
- Season the chops just prior to cooking
- No need to oil the chops or the cooking utensil here
- Cook over high heat turning the chops only once after a rich, golden crust has formed
- Cook 4 to 5 minutes each side for medium rare, a little less if the chops are thin
- Finish by adding a large knob of butter when frying or on the griddle
- Leave to rest in a warm place for a few minutes
To Serve
- Poach the potatoes with 40 ml of the olive oil, garlic, thyme, sea salt & water to just cover and cook very gently until tender
- Toss the pea shoots with a little olive oil, a few capers, a squeeze of lemon & the diced shallots
- Scatter potatoes on a warm serving plate
- Place chops on top & dress with the pea shoot salad and a few small nuggets of goats cheese
