Lumina Lamb Loins

£38.00

A pair of lamb loins from Lumina — New Zealand's premium lamb programme, developed over 15 years of selective breeding and finished for a minimum of 35 days on specially cultivated chicory and clover forage. The loin is the most tender cut on the carcass after the fillet: a lean, compact muscle that runs along the spine, with a fine grain, a clean flavour, and the delicate micro-marbling that defines Lumina lamb.

This is a quick-cooking cut. The loin has very little connective tissue or fat cover, so it cooks fast and benefits from being kept pink at the centre. From Lumina, the micro-marbling gives it more moisture and sweetness than a standard lamb loin — you get the tenderness and refinement of the cut with an added depth and juiciness that comes from the chicory and clover finishing programme.

The loins are sold as a pair and are versatile: roast them whole for a few minutes at high heat, slice into thick medallions and pan-fry, or wrap in pastry for a lamb Wellington. They are also excellent on the barbecue — seared fast over direct heat and rested briefly.

Lumina lambs are free-range, grass-fed year-round on New Zealand pasture, individually EID tagged, and raised on select family farms. Ultra rapid frozen for freshness.

Producer: Lumina Lamb, New Zealand

Ingredients: Lamb (loin × 2)

Storage: Store frozen. Defrost in the refrigerator for 12–24 hours before cooking. Once defrosted, use within 2 days. Do not refreeze.

Net: 500g± (2 x loins)

Remove the loins from the freezer and defrost in the refrigerator for 12–24 hours. Once defrosted, take them out of the fridge 15 minutes before cooking. Pat dry with kitchen paper. Season generously with flaky sea salt.

The loin is lean and cooks quickly. The margin between perfectly done and overcooked is narrow, so a probe thermometer is useful here.

For a whole roast: Preheat the oven to 220°C (fan 200°C). Heat a heavy ovenproof pan until smoking hot. Sear the loins on all sides for 1–2 minutes until golden. Transfer to the oven and roast for 6–8 minutes for medium-rare (internal temperature 52–55°C). Remove and rest for 5–8 minutes. Slice into thick rounds.

For medallions: Slice the raw loins into rounds approximately 2–3cm thick. Heat a pan with a knob of butter over high heat. Sear the medallions for 90 seconds to 2 minutes per side. They should be pink through the centre. Rest for 3 minutes.

For the barbecue: Season the whole loins and sear over direct high heat for 2–3 minutes per side. Move to a cooler zone if needed. Rest for 5 minutes, then slice.

Lumina lamb loin has a sweet, refined flavour that works best with accompaniments that complement rather than compete. A pea and mint purée, roasted baby vegetables, new potatoes, or a light herb salad all work well. A simple pan sauce — deglaze with white wine or stock, finish with butter and a squeeze of lemon — is all you need. The loin also pairs well with Mediterranean flavours: roasted peppers, courgettes, olives, and a drizzle of good olive
