Learn how to prepare lamb noisettes in this simple how-to video from the Good Housekeeping Institute Cookery School.
Lamb noisettes are slices of boned, rolled and tied loin fillet from lamb rack. They are a very expensive to buy, but cheaper to prepare yourself. Watch our step-by-step video to find out how easy it is to make them.
1. First remove skin from meat. Using a sharp knife cut underneath the skin, to separate it from fat beneath. Cut away in one piece. Trim away any thick areas of excess fat.
2. Locate where lean ‘eye’ of meat meets thick chine bone at base of rack. Slice along bone and use long sweeping strokes to cut meat away from bone, slicing as close to bone as possible. When chine bone is free, lay rack bone side up, turn knife horizontally and slice meat away from rib bones, using same sweeping strokes and as close to ribs as possible to cut the bones free.
3. Use tip of knife to cut out small crescent of cartilage from shoulder blade that’s located in between fat layers at one end and cut out and discard rubbery white tendon found along edge of fillet.
4. Trim off any excess fat from meat leaving a very thin, even layer of fat then roll it up tightly to make an even cylinder, starting with the fillet and working towards the thin flap of fat.
5. Use short pieces of string to tie roll at 4cm intervals. Trim any excess string to neaten, then slice the roll into noisettes, cutting evenly between each piece of string. An average 8 bone rack will make 6-7 good noisettes.
6. Fry noisettes in a mixture of a little butter and oil for 5min each side. Remove string from noisette before serving.
