Brush the lamb with olive oil and season. Seal all sides in a hot pan and then roast in a hot oven for 5 minutes, or until medium rare. Let rest for 5 minutes in a warm plate.

To serve:Reheat the vegetables under the grill or in the oven. Place one potato disc on each plate, top with capsicum strips and eggplan(alternate the colours). Quickly saute spinach and place a little on each vegetable stack. Slice the lamb in half on an angle across the grain and stand on top of the vegetable pile. Top the meat with a tbsp of pesto. Put a few drops of balsamic vinegar into some extra virgin olive oil and drizzle around the plate and serve.
