Marinating • 5 minutes

SERVES 4

For the marinade:
2 tbsp sherry vinegar, cider vinegar, or white wine vinegar
pinch of sugar
splash of soy sauce
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 lean lamb loin chops, excess fat removed
handful of fresh rosemary sprigs
1 head broccoli, about 1lb (450g), florets and stems chopped small
juice of 1 lemon
pinch of hot red chile flakes
mint jelly, to serve

Method:
1 First, prepare the marinade. Mix together the vinegar, sugar, and soy sauce, then pour over the lamb. Let marinate at room temperature for 5 minutes, or up to 2 hours, if time permits.

2 Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the lamb chops in a roasting pan, season well with salt and pepper, and add the rosemary sprigs. Roast in the oven for 20–30 minutes until cooked to your liking.

3 While the lamb is cooking, add the broccoli to a pan of boiling salted water, and cook for about 10 minutes until soft. Drain, keeping the broccoli in the pan, then mash gently with a fork. Now squeeze in the lemon juice and stir in the chile, a pinch of salt, and some black pepper. Serve immediately with the lamb chops and a dollop of mint jelly on the side.
