Everything about this cook book is relaxed, unhurried, calm.
This recipe from Laura Santtini’s new book ‘Easy Tasty Italian’ is a quick and easy dish that’s packed with mouth watering umami flavours or rather u-mamma!
12 lamb cutlets or chops
20g rosemary, chopped
3 garlic cloves, peeled and squashed
Olive oil
For the u-mamma! grapes:
1 large onion, finely chopped
80g unsalted butter
3 sprigs of rosemary
1 generous tsp meat extract (such as Bovril)
800g large green seedless grapes, halved
Splash of dry white wine
Salt flakes & freshly ground black pepper
Start by mixing the lamb with the rosemary, garlic and a dousing of olive oil. Then leave this to infuse, ideally overnight. For the u-mamma! grapes, sauté the onion in the butter with the rosemary until soft and golden. Now add the meat extract and grapes, and stir together. Splash with the wine and turn up the heat until the alcohol has evaporated, stirring gently. Then adjust the seasoning and set aside. Next heat a griddle pan, season the chops with salt and freshly ground black pepper and grill on both sides until cooked to taste. Serve the lamb topped with the grapes.
Chefs tip: If your grill pan can only take 4 cutlets at a time, preheat the oven to a very low heat, so that you can leave chops in it to rest as you cook the others.
