Raclette & Wine

• 4 Stück Lammlachse à 150 g
• 4 Scheiben Bacon
• 0,1 Liter Wein
• 0,3 Liter Gemüsebrühe
• 1 kleine Schalotte
• 20 Gramm Butter
• 4 EL Olivenöl
• je 2 Zweige Thymian, Rosmarin, Salbei
• nach Geschmack Salz & Pfeffer

Season the lamb salmon with pepper and massage 2 tbsp of olive oil into the meat. Finely chop the thyme, rosemary and sage and season the meat in the herbs. Marinate in the fridge for a few hours.

<p>Wrap the meat with the bacon slices and sear on all sides in the remaining olive oil. Continue to cook for approx. 4 minutes on each side over a low heat (the cooking time depends on the thickness of the lamb loin - it is best to do a pressure test). Then wrap in aluminium foil and leave to rest in the oven at 80 °C – so they remain juicy and slightly pink on the inside.

This goes well with Bärlauch risotto.
