Charred Lamb Scramble with cumin and garlic

Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the cumin and garlic elements, and pat the lamb dry so it colours well.

Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat and soften the onion and garlic until sweet and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Turn up the heat and add the lamb. Transfer to the oven and bake until set, bubbling and golden on top.

Stir in the dried ancho chillies and the rest of the cumin and garlic flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.

Add the green beans along with a splash of stock or water, then cover and cook gently until everything is tender and the sauce clings.

Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper and a little acid. It should taste bright, savoury and balanced.

Finish with the chopped epazote and serve while hot.
