Step 1
Heat the stock or water until boiling. Add the lentils and thyme. Boil for 20 minutes until the lentils are tender but have some bite. Drain and reserve the lentils. -

Season the whole lamb fillet and griddle for 10-12 minutes on a medium to high heat, turning occasionally. Remove and leave to rest for 5 minutes. -
