Lamb with Rosemary and Red Wine

This is an absolute favourite of mine. It is my mum's recipe so of course I can never make it as well as she can, but it is still pretty fabulous!

Ingredients
  • 8 Lamb chops (I use rib chops but normal ones work too)
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 3 sprigs fresh rosemary
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp plain flour
  • 150ml red wine
  • 200ml vegetable stock (or lamb if you have it)
  • 1 tsp redcurrant jelly
  1. Cut the garlic in half and rub over the lamb chops. Season with salt and pepper
  2. Chop up the rosemary and sprinkle half over the chops
  3. Heat the oil in a heavy based pan and cook the chops for about 5-6mins on each side (or until cooked through)
  4. Remove from pan and cover to keep warm
  5. Add flour to the pan juices and blend, then cook for 30 seconds
  6. Gradually blend in the wine, stock and jelly and bring to the boil, stirring all the while
  7. Add the chops back into the pan for 2 mins and serve with remaining rosemary sprinkled over the top
Serve with lots of yummy mashed potato to mop up the sauce :)
