Impressive lamb and potato salad, perfect for special occasions.
Ingredients:
  • 500g kipfler potatoes, halved lengthways
  • 2 fennel bulbs, trimmed, cut into thin wedges
  • 18.20 gm olive oil
  • 3 (about 600g) lamb eye of loin (backstraps)
  • 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed, cut in half diagonally
  • 1 bunch watercress, sprigs picked
  • 62.50 ml green olive tapenade (see related recipe)
  • 21.00 gm lemon juice
  • 36.40 gm extra virgin olive oil
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C. Arrange potato and fennel on an oven tray, then generously drizzle with 3 teaspoons of oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast for 30-35 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender. Let it rest for 15 minutes after removing from the oven.
  • Heat the rest of the oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Sear the lamb in the pan for 3-4 minutes on each side until done to your preference. Place the lamb on a plate, cover it with foil, and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  • Add the asparagus to the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes until vibrant green and just tender. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Slice the lamb thickly. Combine lamb, potato, fennel, asparagus, and watercress in a large bowl, gently mix, and distribute into serving dishes.
  • Mix together the tapenade, lemon juice, and oil in a pitcher. Pour the mixture over the salads and serve right away.
