English Translation


This is finger food for sharing and it's a delightful dish for celebrating St Dwynwen's day with a partner. It turns a rack of lamb into a special meal by cutting the rack into cutlets then dipping them in laver bread ad herbs followed by lemony breadcrumbs.

Ingredients:

2 racks of Welsh lamb (both cut in half)
1 generous handful of fresh mint
1 generous handful of fresh parsley
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 dessert spoon small capers
6 cornichons
3 tbsp olive oil
finely-grated zest of 2 lemons
juice of 1 lemon
1 tbsp laver bread (fresh or tinned)
4 tbsp breadcrumbs
1 tbsp olive oil
15g butter

Method:

Pre-heat your oven to 200ºC (180 fan/400ºF/Gas Mark 6).

Score a line through the fat of the lamb and season liberally. Sear the meat in a hot non-stick frying pan until golden and transfer to the oven for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to rest for 5 minutes.

Finely chop the mint, parsley, garlic, capers and cornichons. Mix in a bowl with the olive oil, zest of 1 lemon, lemon juice and laverbread. Mix well to combine and adjust the seasoning to taste.

Heat together the olive oil and butter in a frying pan. When frothing add the breadcrumbs and stir-fry until golden brown. Mix in the remaining lemon zest and turn into a bowl.

Divide the cutlets into chops and serve with the dipping sauce and the lemony breadcrumbs.
