Cooking Steps

1

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Lightly score lamb fat in a 1cm criss-cross pattern. Season lamb rump all over and place, fat-side down, in a large frying pan (no need for oil!). • Place pan over medium heat and cook undisturbed until golden, 10-12 minutes. • Increase the heat to high and sear lamb rump on all sides for 30 seconds. Transfer, fat-side up, to a lined oven tray. • Roast for 15-20 minutes for medium or until cooked to your liking. Remove from oven and rest for 10 minutes. TIP: Starting the lamb in a cold pan helps the fat melt without burning. TIP: The meat will keep cooking as it rests!

2

• Meanwhile, cut pumpkin into 1 cm-thick wedges. Place pumpkin on a second lined oven tray. Season with salt and drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. • Roast until just tender, 15-18 minutes. TIP: Peel the pumpkin if you prefer and scrape out the seeds, if necessary!

3

• While pumpkin is roasting, finely chop garlic. Thinly slice Brussels sprouts. • In a medium bowl combine panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients), flaked almonds, Parmesan cheese, half the garlic and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine.

4

• To the tray with pumpkin, evenly sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture. • Bake until golden, a further 8-10 minutes.

5

• Wipe out the frying pan and return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook Brussels sprouts, until tender, 4-5 minutes. Add the remaining garlic, and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Remove from heat, add a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and season with salt and pepper. • In a small microwave-safe bowl, microwave the butter and red wine jus until melted and warmed through, 30 seconds.

6

• Slice lamb. • Divide roast lamb, sautéed Brussels sprouts and roasted pumpkin between plates. • Spoon over red wine jus to serve. Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Tender, juicy lamb with caramelised edges paired beautifully with creamy, sweet pumpkin for a perfect balance of hearty and indulgent flavours.
  • Ease of prep: Many found the meal easy to make, though some struggled without brownie instructions.
  • Suggestions: Consider steaming Brussels sprouts before sautéing for better texture. Adjust brownie sweetness and ensure adequate cream for balance.
  • Portions: Some found the lamb portion small for two people; consider increasing serving size or adjusting expectations.
  • Pumpkin gratin: The cheesy, golden breadcrumb topping added delightful texture, though not everyone enjoyed it on pumpkin.
