Lamb cutlets, garlic mash and curly kale

[karohemd]

This was a piece of a rack of lamb cut into three cutlets by the Art of Meat, marinated in garlic and olive oil.
Mashed potatoes with milk, butter and crushed garlic from the marinade.
Curly kale braised in butter. Red wine reduction.
All seasoned with salt and pepper.

I WANT TO MAKE THIS

Dead easy and quick, too.
Just sear the cutlets in a seriously hot pan two minutes each side and keep warm to rest. Deglaze the pan with red wine to make the reduction (and add any juices from the resting plate).

How was the lamb cooked? Grill? Oven?

[karohemd]

seared in a hot pan, two minutes each side, then rested for five minutes.

four minutes is enough time to cook it? maybe I'll try it. I never cook lamb but I like it a lot.

They were really thin (less than a cm) and lamb benefits from undercooking just like beef so you want them pink. The resting in a warm place helps.
Lamb is my favourite meat to cook.
