Ingredients

Vegetables

  • 1 parsnip, cut into long wedges
  • 200g baby carrots, trimmed
  • 1 beetroot, cut into 1cm thick wedges
  • 4g seed mix

Lamb

  • 350g Te Mana lamb rump
  • 15g pomegranate molasses

Salsa

  • 25g sliced almonds, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 bunch parsley, roughly chopped
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 2g za’atar

To Serve

  • 50g hummus

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 220°C. Prep & cook vegetables. Toss vegetables on a lined oven tray with a drizzle of oil and seed mix. Season and roast in oven for 25-30 minutes, until tender and golden.
  2. Cook lamb. Pat lamb dry and season. Heat a drizzle of oil in an oven-proof pan on medium-high heat. Cook lamb for 2-3 minutes each side, until golden, then transfer pan to oven and cook lamb on rack below vegetables for 6 minutes.
  3. After 6 minutes, remove lamb from oven and drizzle with pomegranate molasses. Return to oven and cook for about 2 more minutes for medium-rare (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking. Rest, before slicing thinly and tossing through any resting juices.
  4. Prep salsa. In a bowl, combine almonds, parsley, lemon juice and za’atar with 1 Tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt. Set aside for serving.
  5. Serve hummus topped with vegetables, lamb and salsa.
