Ingredients

For the salt and spiced lamb ribs

  • 2 sheets lamb breast ribs, cut into individual chops
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp chopped fresh thyme
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper

For the seasoning mixture

  • 1 tbsp sweet smoked paprika
  • 2 tsp garlic granules
  • 1 tbsp cumin seeds
  • 2 tsp chilli flakes
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • ½ tbsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp soft dark brown sugar

To serve

  • 1 tbsp crushed pink peppercorns
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh chives

Method

  1. To make the spiced lamb ribs, preheat the oven to 170C/150C Fan/Gas 3½. Place the ribs into a deep roasting tray, drizzle over the oil and sprinkle over the thyme and salt and pepper to taste. Roast for 2 hours.

  2. To make the seasoning mix, dry fry the spices in a small frying pan until nicely aromatic. Tip into a spice grinder and grind to a fine powder with the salt, oregano, black pepper and sugar.

  3. To serve, remove the ribs from the oven and sprinkle over the seasoning mixture and finish with the crushed pink peppercorns and chives. Serve hot.
