Cracked black pepper, to taste

12 lamb cutlets (lamb rib chops), trimmed (see note 2)

½ cup (75 g) plain (all-purpose) flour

1 tsp sea salt flakes, plus extra to garnish

½ tsp cracked black pepper

3 cups (180 g) panko breadcrumbs

Upute

To make the caper mayonnaise, combine the ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.

Lay the lamb cutlets flat on a chopping board and cover them with a sheet of baking (parchment) paper. Using a mallet or rolling pin, pound the cutlets to roughly a 1 cm (½ inch) thickness.

To crumb the cutlets, place the flour on a piece of baking paper, then stir the salt and pepper through the flour. Add the breadcrumbs and thyme (if using) to a separate sheet of baking paper (using the baking paper makes clean-up easier and aids in crumbing the cutlets, as you can tip the paper up so the crumbs collect in the centre of the paper).

One by one, dip each of the cutlets into the flour, shaking off any excess, followed by the egg, allowing any excess to drip off, and lastly into the breadcrumbs so that they are well coated all over. Don’t worry too much about coating the bone, focus more on the meat.

Heat the oil in a large, heavy-based frying pan over medium–high heat. Cook the cutlets, in batches, for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through. Set aside on a paper towel to drain any excess fat.

Serve the crumbed cutlets on a large platter with an extra sprinkle of salt flakes and the caper mayonnaise and lemon wedges on the side.
