Preparation

Cut each loin of lamb into 5 pieces. In French the cut is called ‘noisette’. Season the noisettes with finely sliced garlic, chopped lemon thyme, a little freshly ground black pepper and 1 tbsp olive oil. Put aside for 30 minutes.

Place the carrots in a small pan with 1/2 tbsp olive oil and 3 tbsp water and cook, covered, for about 8 minutes.

Place the shelled broad beans in a saucepan of boiling water. Drain after
3 minutes, then peel the broad beans.

Heat a non-stick frypan and cook the lamb noisettes, seasoned with salt, for about 2-3 minutes on each side. Transfer the noisettes to a dish.

Add 50 ml dry white wine to the pan and bring to the boil. Add the carrots and their cooking juices, the broad beans, a knob of butter and the tarragon leaves.

Serve 5 pieces of lamb per person onto 2 plates. Spoon the vegetables and juices in between the noisettes and garnish with a few mint leaves and chervil leaves.
