Lamb With Cucumber Mint Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Mix the olive oil, mint, red pepper flakes, and salt to taste in a bowl. Rub the lamb chops all over with the garlic. Transfer a few tablespoons of the mint oil to a small bowl and brush on the chops.
• Grill the chops until charred, 3 to 4 minutes per side. (Press the middle of a chop with your finger: It should be slightly firm with a little give for medium-rare doneness.) Transfer to a platter and brush with some of the remaining mint oil. Sprinkle with mint and serve with more mint oil.

Steps:

• Combine the vinegar, water, sugar, 3/4 teaspoon salt and chilies in a small saucepan over low heat. Heat until sugar and salt dissolve. Remove from heat and let stand for 1 hour.
• Use a peeler to scrape the carrot into 2-inch thin strips. Cut the strips lengthwise to make a fine julienne. Place the carrots in a bowl with the cucumber, jicama, sprouts, lemon grass, cilantro and half of the mint. Toss and set aside.
• Heat a medium-size nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add lamb, cook until medium-rare, 30 seconds per side. Cut across grain into thin slices. Season with salt.
• Pour the dressing over the salad and use your hand to squeeze the dressing into the salad. Mix in the nam pla. Divide among 2 or 4 plates, creating a tall mound. Top with the remaining mint. Drape the lamb over the salad and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Combine Chili Powder, Salt, and Pepper. Rub on the Lamb Chops.
• Place Lamb Chops in the Broiler and cook until desired doneness (145 degrees = medium). This should take about 6-8 minutes.
• Combine Cucumbers, Onion, Avocado, mint, vinegar, and oil. Season with Salt and Pepper.
• Serve Salad and Lamb Chop together.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees, with rack in lower third. Rub lamb with a generous amount of salt and pepper, then rub with oil. With the tip of a sharp paring knife, cut twenty 1/2-inch-deep slits all over lamb; insert garlic slivers into openings.
• Place lamb on a roasting rack set on a rimmed baking sheet; place in oven. Immediately reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees. Roast lamb until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part (avoiding bone) registers 125 degrees to 135 degrees for rare, or 135 degrees to 140 degrees for medium, 1 1/4 to 1 3/4 hours. Remove from oven; let rest 10 to 15 minutes before carving.
• Meanwhile, make the mint sauce: In a small saucepan, bring vinegar, sugar, and water to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer until liquid is syrupy and reduced to 1 cup, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in mint, and let cool completely.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Spread the chips out onto a baking tray, then bake for 12 mins. Meanwhile, whisk together 4 tsp oil from the pepper jar with the red wine vinegar, chopped mint, sugar and some seasoning. Roughly tear the peppers into smaller chunks, then put into a large bowl with the feta and spinach leaves.
• Heat a griddle or frying pan, brush lamb with a little more oil from the pepper jar, then season. Cook for 2-3 mins on each side, then leave to rest on a board.
• Once the chips have cooked for 12 mins, remove the tray from the oven. Cut them in half, toss with 1 tsp more oil from the pepper jar, then roast for another 3 mins. Thinly slice the lamb. Toss the hot crispy chips through the salad with the dressing, arrange on a platter or 2 dinner plates and top with the lamb.
