Cooking Steps

Sear the lamb
1

• See ‘Top Roast Tips!’ (below left). 
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. 
• Lightly score lamb rump 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 heat to high and sear lamb rump on all sides for 30 seconds.


TIP: Starting the lamb in a cold pan helps the fat melt without burning.

Roast the lamb
2

• Transfer lamb, 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: The meat will keep cooking as it rests!

Cook the green beans
3

• While lamb is roasting, trim green beans.
• Wipe out frying pan and return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of 
olive oil.
• Cook green beans, tossing regularly, until tender, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a 
bowl and set aside to cool. 

Finish & serve
4

• To the bowl with green beans, add rocket leaves and balsamic vinaigrette 
dressing. Toss to combine and season with salt and pepper.
• Thinly slice lamb.
• Divide roast lamb rump and balsamic green bean salad between plates. 
• Top lamb with red pesto to serve. Enjoy!
