Lamb Rack Roasted Pink Recipe

Recipe:

Lamb

Step 1: In skillet, sear lamb over medium high heat until well browned, about 4 minutes. Brush lamb all over with mustard. Sprinkle with rosemary and salt.

Step 2: Arrange lamb on a foil-lined baking sheet and roast in a 400°F oven for 15-20 minutes or until pink. Remove and let rest for 10 minutes before carving into individual rib chops.

Potato Mash

Step 1: Peel and cut potatoes into large chunks. Cook in large pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain well and mash. Set aside.

Step 2: In large skillet, heat oil over medium high heat. Stir in cabbage and onion, cooking until onion is tender and starts to brown, about 10 minutes.

Step 3: Add onion mixture to mashed potato and stir well to combine. Shape into six patties and return to skillet to brown well on both sides, about 5 minutes per side.

Red Onion Marmalade

Step 1: In medium saucepan, combine onions, sugar, honey, balsamic vinegar, cinnamon, red wine, salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until onions are very tender and syrup is thick, about 1 hour.

Step 2: To serve, place potato mash over six warmed plates. Top each plate with 2 lamb ribs and red onion marmalade.
