If Asian lamb begins to colour too quickly, reduce the heat. Reserve any resting juices and drizzle over at the end if you want to add extra flavour!


Ingredients

Jasmine Rice

  • 1 cup jasmine rice
  • 1½ cups water

Asian Lamb

  • 300g lamb leg steaks (at room temperature)
  • 1 tablespoon Asian lamb sauce

Sesame Slaw

  • 2 teaspoons sweet chilli sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1 baby bok choy
  • ½ capsicum
  • 1 carrot

To Serve

  • Remaining Asian lamb sauce
  • 15g white sesame seeds

Steps

  1. Combine rice, water and a pinch of salt in a medium pot and bring to the boil. As soon as it boils, cover with a tight-fitting lid and reduce to lowest heat to cook for 12 minutes. Turn off heat and leave to steam, still covered, for a further 8 minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
  2. While rice cooks, pat lamb dry and toss with first measure of Asian lamb sauce in a small bowl. Set aside to marinate for about 10 minutes.
  3. While lamb marinates, combine sweet chilli sauce, sesame oil, olive oil, rice wine vinegar and mayonnaise in a medium bowl and set aside.
  4. Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium fry-pan on mediumhigh heat. Cook lamb for 2-3 minutes for medium each side (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking. Set aside to rest for about 5 minutes before slicing thickly.
  5. While lamb rests, trim end 1cm off bok choy and thinly slice; thinly slice capsicum; grate carrot. Add veggies to bowl with dressing, toss and season to taste.
  6. To serve, place ¾ cup cooked jasmine rice per person into a bowl and top with slices of Asian lamb. Drizzle with remaining Asian lamb sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Top with a handful of sesame slaw.
