1 lamb's breast, roughly 1-2kg
1 onion cut in half
2 carrots left whole
1 leek left whole
1 cup celery sticks
1 cup bay leaves
1 head of garlic cut in half
3 rosemary sticks
1 cup cold water or lamb stock to cover
100 g (3.5oz) plain flour

1
Firstly, put the breast of lamb in a suitable pot with all the vegetables and the aromatics.
2
Cover with the water or the stock and leave to simmer on top of the stove for between 1.5-2.5 hours.
3
Allow the lamb and the liquid to cool.
4
Once cold remove and sandwich between two heavy trays in a fridge overnight - this enables the meat to set flat.
5
The next day, remove the bones from the lamb, plus any excess fat and cut into fingers.
6
Dip in flour, egg and breadcrumbs and either deep or shallow fry until golden - alternatively you can bake it in the oven at 180C until golden.
7
To make the vinaigrette, whisk together the Dijon mustard, garlic, shallot and red wine vinegar, then slowly add the oil.
8
Now carefully separate the egg white from the soft yolk.
9
Tip the yolk into the dressing, chop up the whites quite finely and add these to the dressing.
