We couldn't resist asking our executive Head Chef for his favourite organic Goodwood lamb recipe.

He says “This dish encompasses everything about Goodwood, our meat, beer and dairy along with a selection of fresh vegetables. For a little indulgence to the dish we have added a hand-dived scallop - however this is optional and it is completely delicious with or without.”

Ingredients:

1 Boned shoulder of organic lamb

250ml Goodwood ale, Grogger

200ml Brown stock

100ml Chicken stock

1ea Onion, carrot, celery stick, leeks (roughly chopped)

300g Over ripe tomatoes (blended to a pulp)

1 Head of garlic split in half

4tbsp Tomato puree

400g Fresh peas

200g Podded broad beans

1 bun Baby leeks  (trimmed, cleaned and lightly blowtorched or scorched under a hot grill)

8 Baby turnips (cleaned, lightly blanched)

150g Samphire

200g Butter

1 Shallot (peeled and sliced)

Micro mint, sprig rosemary, salt & pepper

Method

This can be cooked in advance to stage 5 the day before. Stages 6-10 should take around 20 minutes.

  1. Season the lamb with salt and pepper on all sides then lightly sear in a pan with some oil to achieve a nice golden brown colour. Set to one side.
  2. In a hot heavy casserole pot place a splash of oil and colour the roughly chopped onion, celery, carrot and leek along with the rosemary and garlic, once golden brown stir in the tomato puree, cook for 1 minute.
  3. Add the ale and bring to the boil, add the brown stock along with the pulped tomatoes, bring to the boil.
  4. Place the seared lamb shoulder into the casserole pot cover with a lid or foil and cook in a pre-heated oven (160 degrees) for 3 hours. Remove from the oven once cooked and leave to stand for 40 minutes.
  5. Once cooled, carefully remove the cooked shoulder, place onto cling film and roll tightly into a cylinder shape, place onto a tray and refrigerate overnight.
  6. Pass the cooking liquor from the casserole pot through a fine sieve, put the liquid into a pot, place onto the stove and cook the liquid down to sauce consistency, whisk in a knob of butter and season with salt as needed.
  7. Whilst the sauce is reducing, heat 100g of butter in a pan, take the sliced shallot, fry gently in the butter for one minute, add half of the peas, the chicken stock and cook for two minutes, place into a blender and blend to a smooth puree, pass the puree through a fine sieve to remove the pea skins, decant into a piping bag.
  8. Cut the set, cooked shoulder into four portions, remove the cling film, colour on all sides in a hot frying pan, add a few splashes of the sauce and place into a hot oven for 8 minutes, basting every 2 minutes, until hot and nicely glazed.
  9. Whilst the lamb is glazing in the oven, heat the remaining butter heat to a nice foam and very quickly add the remaining peas, broad beans, baby turnips, scorched leeks and finally the samphire. Toss altogether until heated through and season with a little salt.
  10. To finish scatter the vegetables onto the plate, pipe the puree around, place the glazed lamb in the centre and spoon over a little of the sauce. Garnish with some micro mint.

Note:
To add the hand dived scallops, simply sear in a hot pan in a little oil on both sides for a minute on each side. A possible final extravagance would be to add some delicious spring mushrooms like a morel, cleaned and then tossed together with the vegetables.
