Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas mark 6. Put the lamb in a large bowl with the rosemary, thyme and garlic, then season to taste.

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, honey and balsamic vinegar. Put the carrots in a large roasting tin, drizzle over the honey mixture and toss to combine. Season to taste, then add the onions and roast for 35-40 minutes, tossing halfway, until the carrots are tender and sticky. Toss through the parsley.

Meanwhile, mist a large nonstick frying pan with cooking spray, add the lamb and cook for 2½ minutes each side. Cover loosely with kitchen foil and set aside to rest for 5 minutes.
