Brown the chops in a minimum of oil in a pan over a medium to high heat – start first with the edge of fat.

Transfer to a baking tray and pour over the sauce. Bake for 5 minutes, or until just cooked and still pink. Allow to rest for at least 5 minutes.

 

Cut the potatoes into cubes. Moisten with oil and season with salt. Turn onto a shallow baking tray.
Add a few sprigs of rosemary. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden and crusty.

 

Serve with the saucy lamb chops and fresh greens.
