Method

1 First, make the mayonnaise. Put egg yolks and English mustard into a bowl and mix together. Slowly - drop by drop initially - beat in the olive oil with a whisk. When it starts to thicken, the oil can be added a little faster in a thin stream, but continue to beat all the time.
2 When all the oil has been added, stir in the garlic, chilli and lemon juice. Season. If it's too thick, stir in a splash of water.
3 Preheat the oven to 200˚C (180˚C fan) mark 6. Combine the oil and Dijon mustard and brush over the cutlets, avoiding the bone. Mix the herbs together and scatter on to a plate. Coat each cutlet in the herbs and arrange on a non-stick baking tray. Cook in the oven for 8-10min, then serve with the mayonnaise.
