Instructions
 

The pasta:

  • Put the ingredients in a bowl and knead well until a homogeneous dough is formed.
  • Then chill for an hour. Then knead the dough again and ideally roll it out with the help of a pasta machine.
  • Depending on your taste, the pasta can be rolled out thinner or thicker.
  • The thin pasta sheets are then cut into the correct shape using the tagliatelle cutting function. If you don't have a pasta machine, you can of course do the rolling out and cutting by hand.
  • It is best to hang the noodles on a clothes hanger or similar for at least three hours to dry.

The Lamb:

  • Prepare the herb crust first.
  • To do this, melt the butter, stir in the finely chopped herbs and garlic. Finally stir in sugar and breadcrumbs.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper. Spread on a plate covered with cling film and allow to harden in the refrigerator.
  • Take the lamb out of the fridge 40 minutes before serving. Season with pepper.
  • Sauté briefly on all sides in a pan with olive oil and a little butter until light toasted aromas develop. Then put the lamb in a baking dish.
  • Cut the prepared butter crust into strips and place on the lamb.
  • Pour the remaining butter-oil mixture from the pan into the baking dish.
  • Cook at 160 degrees for 20 minutes. Then increase to 200 degrees for five minutes.

For the sauce:

  • Melt the butter in a pan.
  • Stir in the flour with a whisk and deglaze with the lamb stock.
  • Stir in the whipped cream and lemon juice. Season to taste with sugar, salt and pepper.
  • Simmer until ready to serve

For the vegetables:

  • Quarter the zucchini, cut the onions into thin slices.
  • Fry in a pan with olive oil. Add sugar and caramelize lightly.
  • Deglaze with lemon juice and fry a little.
  • Before serving, fold in lemon fillets and season with salt and pepper.
