Ingredients
- 4 lamb rumps approximately 200g each
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 teaspoon fresh rosemary leaves very finely chopped
- 2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon fine salt
- a few grinds of fresh black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180c.
- In a small bowl, combine the lamb rumps with oregano, rosemary, thyme, olive oil and salt and pepper, then turn to coat well.
- Heat a heavy skillet (oven-proof) or large frying pan (see my notes) over medium-high heat and fry the lamb rumps until brown all over.
- Place the skillet into the preheated oven to bake for 16-18 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, take the rumps out of the pan, cover loosely with foil and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
- Then slice (across the grain) and serve drizzled with any resting juices.

Notes
- *Please note that the amount of calories per serve is provided as a guide only, as ingredients and cooking methods can vary greatly*
- If you don't have an oven-safe frypan, after frying them put the rumps onto a baking tray to finish cooking in the oven.
- This lamb is most tender when cooked to medium-rare or medium doneness. The most accurate way to check this is with a meat thermometer inserted into the centre of the roast. Medium-rare is from 60c to 65c, and medium is 65c to 70c.
- The temperature of the meat will continue to rise slightly once the lamb is out of the oven and resting.
