Hogget Loin with Garlic Cream Sauce

Hogget (or lamb) goes very well with garlic. This cream sauce is easy, refined, and definitely "more'ish".

Hogget is lamb that is a bit older. Not quite as old as mutton. It is still tender, and is tastier than lamb. It is hard to find in supermarkets. You can use lamb in this recipe, no problem! I served this with spinach and croquettes potatoes.

 
 

Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 Hogget (or Lamb) Loin (approximately 300 g or 3/4 pound)

  • 15 g (1 Tablespoon) Butter
  • 6 Garlic Cloves
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) Cream
  • Salt, Fresh Ground Black Pepper
  • Reduced Vincotto or Reduced Balsamic Vinegar (Optional)

You may, if you wish, use a bit of reduced Vincotto or reduced Balsamic vinegar to garnish the sauce, but it is not necessary. Should you wish to, you would need to reduce it by about 2/3.

Mise En Place

  1. Peel the garlic cloves, cut them in half.

Preparation

  1. Put the garlic and cream in a pot, bring it to a boil, and reduce ( Boil down the liquid) [?] the cream by half.
  2. Season the hogget (or lamb) with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat up the oil and butter in a pan.
  4. Cook the hogget on medium heat until medium-rare (or to your liking). Let the meat sit for a few minutes.
  5. Put the garlic and cream through the blender and process thoroughly.

Finition

  1. Slice the meat and serve with the sauce.
