Cooking Instructions

  1. Cook the lamb as per the package instructions.
  2. Preheat oven to 200C
  3. To make the potatoes, peel then cut into chunks and place into a pot of cold water. Season with salt, then boil until potatoes are just tender – do not over-boil the potatoes at this stage.
  4. Drain potatoes and set aside to air dry on a tray lined with kitchen paper.
  5. Place the duck fat, sage and thyme into a roasting dish, then place into the oven to heat for 15 minutes.
  6. Once the fat is hot and melted, place the potatoes into the roasting dish, season generously with salt, then toss to cover the potatoes in the fat.
  7. Return to the oven, then roast potatoes for 30 minutes or until golden and crisp.
  8. For the carrots, cut them into thick diagonal slices, then place into a pot with the water, cover with a lid, then simmer until the carrots are tender.
  9. Remove the lid then add the butter and the honey – increase the heat and saute the carrots until sticky and glazed. Toss in the parsley, then serve immediately.
  10. For the mint sauce, pour the water onto the sugar, then stir to dissolve.
  11. Add the vinegar, mint and salt, then leave to stand for 20 minutes before serving spooned onto the lamb.
