Preparation steps

1.
Add 1 tsp salt to 750 ml water in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Sprinkle in the cornmeal, cover and boil for approx. 15 minutes. Stir well with a wooden spoon, add a further approx. 250 ml water and cook for a further approx. 45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cooked through. Add more water if needed.
2.
For the chutney, heat the oil in a saucepan and add the onions, ginger, garlic, apricots, peaches and mustard seeds. Fry for 2-3 minutes then deglaze with a little water, the orange juice and vinegar. Stir in the sugar and season to taste with salt and chilli powder. Reduce for around 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until you have a thick chutney. Add more water if needed.
3.
Spread the lamb with mustard. Place on the oiled barbecue, close the lid and cook for around 15 minutes, turning.
4.
Flavour the pap with olive oil, thyme and salt. Check the seasoning in the chutney and arrange the chutney and pap on plates. Cut the racks of lamb in half, place half a rack on each plate and serve.
