  2. Score the lamb fat lightly with a knife. Rub in salt and pepper and Herbes de Provençe.

  4. Place the beans and tomatoes, olive oil and stock in the tin or dish, stir and season with salt and pepper.
  5. Heat in the oven for about 20 minutes. This mixture can bubble and reduce a little.
  6. Reset the temperature at 220ºC. Add the lamb to the bean and tomato mixture, fat side uppermost, and roast for 20 - 25
  7. minutes.
  8. Take out the lamb, wrap in foil to keep warm and place it on the grill tray on top of the oven. Turn off the oven.
  9. Pour the bean and tomato mixture into a frying pan, and boil gently to remove some of the moisture until it just holds it shape on the spoon.
  10. Carve the lamb into cutlets, remove the rosemary, and serve with the tomato and beans.
  11. Garnish with fresh rosemary sprigs.
