Alternatively, cook lamb on BBQ for about 2 minutes each side, or until cooked to your liking. Then cook courgette for about 2 minutes, until tender. Turn occasionally to ensure even cooking.


Ingredients

Baby Potatoes

  • 1 pack baby potatoes, diced 3cm
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons roughly chopped mint leaves

Lamb Rump Steaks

  • 1 pack lamb leg steaks (at room temperature)
  • 3 teaspoons lamb spice mix

Pea Salad

  • 250g frozen peas
  • 1 courgette
  • 1 capsicum
  • 1 pottle feta cheese
  • ½-1 sachet honey and mustard dressing

To Serve

  • 1 sachet toasted almonds

Steps

  1. Bring a full kettle to the boil. Bring a small pot of salted water to the boil. Preheat BBQ hot plate or grill to medium (if using). Add potatoes, salt and boiling water to a medium pot on high heat and bring to the boil with the lid on. Cook for 15–20 minutes, until tender. Remove lid if it starts to boil over. Drain potatoes well and return to pot with butter and mint. Season.
  2. Heat a drizzle of oil in large fry-pan on high heat. Pat lamb dry, toss with lamb spice mix and season. Cook for about 2-3 minutes each side for medium (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking. Set lamb aside, covered, to rest. Reserve pan.
  3. While lamb cooks, cook peas in pot of boiling water for 1 minute then drain and refresh under cold water. Cut courgette into 5cm sticks and set aside. Slice capsicum 1cm. Add capsicum and drained peas to a medium bowl and crumble over feta cheese. Set aside.
  4. Return reserved pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Stir-fry courgette for about 2 minutes, until tender. Add to bowl with peas, along with honey and mustard dressing and toss to combine. Season to taste.
  5. Slice lamb thickly against the grain.
  6. To serve, divide baby potatoes, slices of lamb rump steaks and pea salad between plates. Sprinkle over toasted almonds.
