Combine the rosemary, garlic, mint and garlic seasoning, 1 tbs wholegrain mustard and 1 tbs extra virgin olive oil in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the lamb and turn to coat.
2. Step 2 — Prep and roast potato
   Cut the unpeeled potatoes into 4cm chunks. Put the potato on a lined tray, drizzle with 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Spread in an even layer and roast for 35 mins or until tender.
3. Step 3 — Prep ingredients
   While the potato is roasting, trim the beans. Pick the mint leaves, discarding the stems.
4. Step 4 — Cook lamb
   Preheat a chargrill pan over high heat until hot. Cook the lamb, turning regularly, for 4 mins or until browned. Transfer to the remaining lined tray. Roast the lamb for 6-7 mins for medium-rare, or until cooked to your liking. Remove from the oven and rest for 8 mins.
5. Step 5 — Make mint sauce
   Meanwhile, bring a small saucepan of water to the boil for the beans. Put the mint, 2 tbs apple cider vinegar, 2 tbs brown sugar and 3 tsp extra virgin olive oil in a tall jug. Blend with a stick blender until almost smooth. Season with salt.
