Today, I invite you to a remarkable gastronomic experience: a delicately prepared lamb, covered in an intense sauce of roasted tomatoes and full-bodied red wine. A dish that combines tradition and sophistication, perfect for a special dinner, by candlelight or among good conversations.

✨ Ingredients (serves 2 to 3 people)
For the lamb:

600g of lamb rack or leg (in pieces or medallions)

Salt and black pepper to taste

2 tablespoons of olive oil

1 sprig of fresh rosemary

2 cloves of garlic, crushed

1 tablespoon of butter

For the sauce:

4 ripe tomatoes (roasted or peeled)

1 red onion, chopped

2 cloves of garlic, chopped

200ml of dry red wine (good quality)

1 teaspoon of brown sugar

Salt and pepper to taste

A dash of olive oil

Basil or thyme leaves to finish

🥄 Preparation Method
Season the lamb with salt, pepper, and a touch of rosemary. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours, if you have time).

Sear the lamb in a hot frying pan with olive oil and butter. Brown all sides well, along with the garlic cloves. Set aside in a dish.

In the same frying pan, sauté the onion and garlic for the sauce until golden and fragrant. Add the tomatoes (roasted or peeled), stir well, and cook for a few minutes.

Add the red wine and brown sugar. Let the sauce reduce over medium heat for about 15 to 20 minutes, until it thickens slightly and the flavors blend.

Return the lamb to the frying pan, coat it in the sauce, and cook for another 8 to 10 minutes over low heat, keeping the meat juicy and tender.

Finish with fresh herbs, a drizzle of olive oil, and, if desired, a touch of fleur de sel.

🍷 Tip from Natacha:
Serve with truffled mashed potatoes, Moroccan couscous, or creamy polenta. And of course, a glass of the same wine used in the preparation elevates the experience!
