Ingredients
Large lamb chomp chop.Sprig of Thyme.
Mint sauce made up with vinegar and a little sugar.
Seasonable vegetables (I used leeks, mushrooms and spinach).
Gravy made up with the juices from the pan and a little Bisto gravy granules.
Directions
Trim any excessive fat of the lamb chop, fry in a pan with just a little groundnut oil. Keep testing the cooking by checking with your finger for the bounce. As it cooks just add a little mint sauce on it as well a sprig of rosemary.Prepare some steamed seasonal vegetables in a steamer at the same time and cook on a medium to low heat. Leeks, mushrooms, beans and spinach go well.
When the lamb is done – slightly pink is best – put on a warm plate to rest (in a warm oven). Make some Bisto gravy in the remaining lamb juices in the frying pan. Decant to a glass serving jug.
Remove the lamb from the oven, add the steamed vegetables and some extra mint sauce and add the gravy. This provides a very tasty meal.

Note: Either make your own mint sauce with vinegar and sugar or use off-the-shelf mint sauce but not the mint gel version. You can thin it down with some extra vinegar and a pinch of sugar to take off the sharpness.
