Course Lunch, Main Dish
Cuisine Modern Australian
Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 1 kg whole lamb rumps trimmed of fat, about 4-5
  • 2 red capsicum cut into wedges
  • 1 kg pumpkin cut into wedges
  • 2 red onions cut into wedges
  • 2.5 tbsp olive oil
  • 250 g haloumi cheese cut into 2cm pieces
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tbsp rosemary leaves chopped
  • 1/2 cup basil leaves
  • Green salad to serve

Instructions
 

  • Take the lamb out of the fridge to allow it to come to room temperature.
  • Preheat oven to 180ºC. Toss the capsicum, pumpkin and red onion with 2 tbsp of the oil and spread on a lined baking tray, cooking for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Add the haloumi pieces to the tray and drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Bake the vegetables and haloumi for a further 15 minutes or until the haloumi is golden brown.
  • Place a large frying pan over a high heat. Rub the lamb with the remaining oil and cook for 2 minutes on both sides or until browned (lamb does not need to be cooked).
  • Rub the browned lamb with rosemary and place in a roasting dish in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until cooked to your liking. Remove from oven, cover loosely with foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes.
  • Slice the lamb and serve with roasted vegetables, haloumi and basil leaves. Serve with a green salad
