    Ingredients

    pinch saffron (optional)
    500g essential Waitrose New Zealand lamb loin chops, defrosted
    5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
    300g essential Waitrose cauliflower, cut into florets
    25g flat leaf parsley

    1. Steep the saffron strands, if using, in 2 tbsp boiling water. Heat a griddle pan over a high heat. Brush 1 tbsp all over the lamb chops. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side for medium, transfer to a warmed plate, season and cover with foil to rest.

    2. Pulse the cauliflower, parsley and mint in a food processor until finely chopped.

Add the onion, nuts, pomegranate seeds and apricots; season and toss together. Serve with the chops and a dollop of tzatziki.
