Ingredients
- 2 Barnsley lamb chops (450–600g pack)

Method
- Take chops out of the fridge 30 minutes ahead. Pat dry and season well.
- Heat a heavy pan until hot. Add oil, then chops. Sear 3–4 minutes a side for medium-pink (about 58–60°C in the thickest part), basting with butter, garlic and rosemary for the last minute.
- Rest under foil 5 minutes.
- Stir mint, sugar, vinegar and salt for a quick mint sauce.
- Slice between the two loins if sharing, or serve whole with potatoes, greens and mint sauce.
