Ingredients
GARLIC AND HERB POTATO SALAD
- 800g potatoes, scrubbed and sliced 0.5cm
- 1–2 spring onions
- 3 stalks celery
- ½ red cabbage
PAN-FRIED LAMB STEAKS
- 600g lamb rump steaks (at room temperature)
- 2 tablespoons lamb spice mix
SALAD DRESSING
- 2 tablespoons parsley leaves and stalks
- 1 clove garlic
- 1½ teaspoons mustard (e.g. Dijon, wholegrain)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon salt
TO SERVE
- Reserved spring onion
Steps
-
a large pot of salted water to the boil. Preheat BBQ grill to high (if using).
-
Cook potatoes in pot of boiling water for 7–9 minutes, until just softened. Reserve ¼ cup of the cooking water (for dressing), then drain. Rinse potatoes under cold water until cold, drain again then set aside.
-
While potatoes are cooking, prepare remaining salad. Thinly slice spring onion on an angle, reserving 2–3 tablespoons of the green end for serving; thinly slice celery on an angle; thinly shred cabbage until you have 3–4 cups worth. Place all in a large bowl and set aside.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on medium-high heat. Pat lamb dry, rub with lamb spice mix and season with salt. Cook for about 2 minutes each side, for medium-rare (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking. Set aside, covered, to rest for about 5 minutes.
-
While lamb is cooking, finely chop parsley and mince garlic. Place in a bowl with all remaining salad dressing ingredients and reserved potato cooking water and whisk to combine. Alternatively, use a blender to mix until smooth.
-
Add cooked and cooled potatoes to bowl with remaining salad ingredients and pour over salad dressing. Mix gently to combine then season to taste with salt and pepper. Slice pan-fried lamb thickly against the grain.
-
Divide slices of pan-fried lamb and garlic and herb potato salad between plates. Garnish with reserved spring onion.
