Ingredients:

4 lamb chops 

Rapeseed oil, for frying 

4 sweet potatoes 

Salt & pepper, to season 

Olive oil

For the dressing

2 teaspoon Japanese soy sauce 

2 teaspoons orange zest 

4 tablespoons orange juice 

2 teaspoons lemon juice 

1 teaspoon brown sugar 

2 tablespoon olive oil 

Few handfuls of pomegranate seeds

To serve

Freshly chopped parsley

Instructions

1. Preheat a fan oven to 200 degrees Celsius.

2. Wash a whole sweet potato and then pat dry with kitchen paper. Using a sharp knife, make a few slits on the skin. Place a few tablespoons of olive oil in a small bowl and add salt and pepper to season. Mix well and rub onto the skin of the sweet potato. Wrap in tin foil and place in the oven for about 60 minutes or until cooked. Cut in half before serving.

3. Heat the rapeseed oil in a non-stick frying pan on medium-high heat. Place the lamb chops on the pan and fry on each side for at least 3 minutes depending on how you like your meat cooked (3 minutes on each side will leave the meat medium-rare).

4. Mix all the ingredients for the yuzu & pomegranate dressing in a small bowl.

5. Place the lamb chops and baked sweet potato on a large serving dish. Drizzle over the dressing just before serving and decorate with freshly chopped parsley.
