Place all ingredients (except oil) in a mini food processor and blitz as you add the oil
More oil maybe needed but this is dependent upon how thin you like your hummus. I like to add a couple tbsp of water to mine to thin it out
Lamb
Remove from the fridge 15mins + before cooking
Rub in oil and season generously
Cook in frying pan for approx. 5 mins to brown the outside
Place on a wire rack and roast in the oven at 200c for approx. 20mins or until internal temperature reads approx. 50c for medium rare (prepare the carrots)
Allow to rest for 8-10 minutes before slicing
Carrots
Peel carrots and toss in oil/salt
With 5 minutes to go for the lamb to be cooked, fry the carrots for 5 minutes on high heat
Once the lamb has been removed then place the carrots in the oven @ 200c for 8-10 minutes to cook
Other (prepare as the lamb is cooking)
Plump the raisins by soaking them for 1 minute in warm water
Toast the almonds for 2-3 minutes in a dry frying pan and chop
Add the lemon, oil & chopped parsley together for the oil
Notes
Tips/Tricks
when possible, allow your meat to come to room temperature. This allows a more even cooking of the meat
ALWAYS rest your meat before cooking. Even a well-rested medium/medium well piece of meat can/will be juicy if rested correctly
hummus can be made in advance if serving at a dinner party
the lemon parsley oil is best made closer to serving so the parsley stays bright and green
