  • Melt the butter in large saucepan or Dutch pan and add the onions and cook with no coloration for 2 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of water then the carrots. Cover for 4 minutes. Then add the turnips and radishes. Cover for 2 minutes.

  • At the last moment add the peas and lettuce leaves, a few drops of lemon juice. Salt and pepper. The water/butter looks like a sauce, a “liaison” for the vegetables.

To grill the lamb chops:

  • Grill to your taste the lamb chops. Add the spices, salt and pepper. In France, we cook them “rosé”, pink but not red inside.

Notes

Serve a few tablespoons of jardinière and 3 lamb chops.
