Serves 6
Ingredients
- 6 x 4 - 6 rib Quality Mark lamb racks, fully trimmed and seasoned
Tartlets
- 2 sheets ready-rolled puff pastry
- 2 onions, peeled and sliced finely
- 50g butter
- 3 egg yolks
- 2 tsp fresh rosemary
- 50ml cream
- 1 tsp cornflour
Creamed Spinach
- 250g baby fresh spinach, washed, stalks removed and well drained
- 1 tsp powdered chicken stock
- 300ml cream
Method
Sweat the onions in the butter until cooked, not browned.
Season, cool and then add the cream, cornflour, egg yolks and rosemary. Line 6 greased tartlet cases or muffin tins with the pastry and fill with the onion mixture. Bake at 180 degrees C for 30 minutes, or until done. Set aside.
Lightly oil a heavy-based pan and brown lamb racks well over a high heat. Transfer to a preheated oven and roast at 190°C for 15 - 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to rest, covered in a warm place for about 5 minutes.
To Serve
Heat the cream in a saucepan and whisk in the chicken stock.
Add the spinach and allow to wilt in the cream, 1 - 2 minutes.
Reheat the tartlets while the lamb is resting. Place a tartlet on the centre of each plate, top with a little spinach and cream and rest a lamb rack (whole or carved) against it.
