Polenta
Directions
- Combine garlic, mustard seeds, Dijon, and olive oil and rub into the rack of lamb. Marinate overnight or up to two days.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Layer the vegetables in a small terrine mold. Cover and Bake in the preheated oven until tender - 15 to 20 minutes. Uncover and let cool. Unmold and slice thick crosscut slices. Heat the vegetable oil to 350 degrees over medium heat in a large heavy bottom pan. Fry the terrine slices until golden brown. Reserve on paper towels.
- Heat stock and wine in a small saucepan over medium heat until reduced by half. Add mustard and vinegar and stir. Remove from heat, add butter and swirl to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place chicken stock, water and polenta into a small saucepan over medium-high heat and cook stirring constantly until all liquid has been absorbed and the polenta is soft - 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the butter, olive oil and sour cream and stir to combine. Add the jalapeno and scallions and stir.
- To serve, grill the lamb rack to the desired doneness and cut it into chops. Place a dollop of polenta on the bottom of a serving plate. Top with a fried vegetable terrine slice and lean the lamb chops up against the stack. Spoon the chutney all around and the sauce over the top.
