No doubt a very skillful recipe with great textures and flavour, a perfectly balanced recipe to entice your taste buds.

Ingredients:
Serves 4

Lamb
4 portions of Wicklow lamb rump
2 rosemary sprigs
3 garlic cloves, minced
pomace olive oil
2 tea spoons of Dijon mustard
50g pistachio, crushed

Green pea purée
300g of frozen peas
200ml of boiling water
salt to taste

Dauphinoise potato
400g of potatoes, peeled and sliced thinly
1 garlic clove, minced
300ml of whole milk
200ml of double cream
2 pinches of nutmeg, grated

Tomatoes
8 santos tomatoes
olive oil

Mint jus
200ml of red wine
100ml of veal stock
10ml balsamic vinegar
1 mint sprig

Method:

Lamb
1. Mix the rosemary, garlic and olive oil and gently rub into the lamb, season with salt and cracked black pepper.
2. Cover the lamb and leave to marinate for at least 2 hours. When the meat is ready, pan-fry it on a very hot pan till golden colour, then place it in the pre-heated oven 180*C for 10 minutes.
3. Remove from the oven and brush with the mustard. Coat the lamb in the crushed pistachio mixture. Set aside to rest.

Green pea
1. For the pea purée, put all the ingredients into a blender and set it to a low speed. Increase the speed slowly until the maximum has been reached.
2. Leave to blend for a further minute and pass through a fine sieve. Finish by seasoning to taste. Place in a saucepan ready to reheat and serve.

Potato
1. Combine the cream, milk, nutmeg, garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper in a large saucepan and bring to the boil.
2. Once boiling, remove from the heat and set aside. Layer thin potato slices inside a small oven dish lined with baking paper, being sure to overlap each layer as you go.
3. Preheat the oven to 160˚C. Pour enough of the cream mixture over the potatoes to cover and bake in the oven for 45 minutes or until slightly golden on top and tender through the middle.
4. Remove from the oven and cool down. When dauphinoise potato is fully set cut it into portions.

Tomatoes
1. Roast tomatoes with a little olive oil in the hot oven for 6 minutes. Sprinkle with some sea salt flakes.

Mint jus
1. Combine red wine, vinegar, mint and veal stock in a pan and reduce by about two thirds until it has a thin gravy-like consistency, discard the mint sprig and strain.

To finish
1. Re-heat the potato dauphinoise and place it in the middle of the plate. Randomly spoon some pea puree and roast santos tomatoes.
2. Add pistachio crusted lamb rump cut in a half. Finish by drizzling the mint jus over the lamb. 3. Garnish over with some micro leaves, serve immediately.
