Directions

1. Place rumps in a ceramic dish. Drizzle with pomegranate molasses and oil and marinate in a cool place for 1 hour.
2. Preheat oven to 220C.
3. Season lamb rumps with salt and pepper and transfer to an oven pan lined with non-stick baking paper.
4. Roast for 15 minutes then remove to rest for 10 minutes keep meat warm under a tent of foil.
5. Meanwhile, halve the pomegranate. Remove the seeds and combine them with the chopped fresh mint.
