We love Stéphane Reynaud’s recipes – they’re easy to follow and the end result is always stunning. This recipe for lamb with bay leaf potatoes is quick to prepare and doesn’t take long to cook, making it perfect for a mid-week supper. And the cooking of the lamb cutlets on top of the sliced potatoes means none of those delicious meat juices go to waste. Delicious.
