Grilled lamb with cavolo nero and farro

To begin, rinse the farro in cold running water and place in a heavy-based pan. Cover with cold water, season with a good pinch of salt and bring to the boil before turning down to a simmer. Cook until the farro is tender, for approximately 25 minutes

Meanwhile, cook the cavolo nero. Strip the leaves from the stalks and bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Once boiling, add the cavolo nero leaves and cook for 3 minutes. Drain and dress with lemon juice, a little oil and salt

Drain the farro and dress while warm with the olive oil, Parmesan and vinegar. Season and place in a pan to warm through later

Place half of the cavolo nero in a food processor with the butter, anchovies, garlic and a twist of black pepper and blitz until smooth. Remove the cavolo nero pesto from the food processor and stir into the farro

Trim the lamb of most of its fat and, using a sharp knife, cut into 8 pieces, following the muscle groups of the leg. Season well with sea salt and black pepper and rub with oil

Place a griddle pan over a high heat and, when it is hot, cook the meat without turning for 4 minutes. Turn and cook on the other side for 3 minutes, then remove from the pan and leave to rest in a warm place for 10 minutes (leave the grill on the hob to cook the radicchio). Meanwhile, gently reheat the farro and the cavolo nero leaves

Quarter the radicchio, place in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and grill until soft, collapsing and charred. Remove from the grill, place in a bowl and drizzle with a little balsamic vinegar

To serve, spoon the warm farro into the centre of each plate. Slice the lamb against the grain and arrange alongside. Lay the cavolo nero and 2 quarters of grilled radicchio over the top, drizzle with a little of the best extra virgin olive oil you have and serve
