Steps

  1. Cook wedges Preheat oven to 220ºC. Cut potatoes into 2cm wedges and toss on a lined oven tray with a drizzle of oil. Season and cook for about 35 minutes, until golden and tender. Turn once during cooking.
  2. Prepare lamb Pat lamb dry and add to a bowl with za’atar spice mix, ½ tsp salt and a drizzle of oil. Season with pepper, toss to coat and set aside.
  3. Cook asparagus Bring a full kettle of water to the boil. Slice asparagus 3cm and place in a heat-proof bowl. Cover with boiling water. Cover with a plate and leave for 3–5 minutes, until bright green and tender. Drain and refresh under cold water.
  4. Cook lamb Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on medium-high heat. Cook lamb for 2–3 minutes each side for medium (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking. Set aside, covered, to rest for about 5 minutes. Slice lamb thinly against the grain.
