Rack of lamb with Cervia salt and fossa cheese fondue
Ingredients
For 4 persons:
- 2 lamb loin weighing about 500 g each
- 4 Imola red potatoes boiled, mashed and seasoned with just oil and Cervia sweet salt, keep warm
- a few cloves of garlic
- olive oil
- Cervia aromatic herb salt for meat
For the sauce
- olive oil must quantum satis
- 100 g grated Fossa cheese
- 1 dl of hot meat stock
- freshly ground white pepper
Preparation
Season the loin with salt and pepper and season with Cervia Salt with herbs for meat. Roast the meat in the oven at 220° for 10 minutes, remove from the oven and leave to rest in a warm place for 10 minutes.
Cut the loin chops and arrange them on individual plates garnishing with mashed 'Rossa di Imola' potato. Season the chops with a pinch of aromatic salt and finish with a little sauce and a drizzle of raw oil.
In a small, tall and narrow bowl, blend the 100 g cheese with the hot meat stock with an immersion blender, adding the oil must until a vaguely creamy sauce is obtained, season with pepper and keep warm.
