Method

  1. Put the breadcrumbs and parmesan into a shallow dish and mix. Put the flour and eggs into separate shallow dishes.
  2. Dip each lamb cutlet into the flour, then egg, and finally into the parmesan breadcrumbs, making sure each cutlet is well coated. Repeat for each cutlet, then chill for 10 minutes. Heat about 1cm of the oil in a large pan. Add the cutlets and fry until golden, about 3-4 minutes each side. Drain onto kitchen paper.
  3. To make the salad put the oils, mustard, vinegar and a good amount of seasoning in a bowl and whisk well. Stir in the cream.
  4. Coat the chicory in the dressing, then scatter with the chives. Serve with the lamb.

    A lovely fresh dinner, be careful though, easy to undercook the lamb for fear of burning the breadcrumbs, lamb was sometimes slightly rarer than I would have liked but would make again. The chicory salad was lovely and something I wouldn't have thought of but lovely and together ideal for a summers night.
