Method

  • Step 1 In a food processor, blend 1/2 cup mint with the shallot, cumin, paprika, garam masala, allspice, chilli flakes, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper until coarsely chopped. Add oil and process until marinade is well blended. In a large baking dish, combine marinade and lamb cutlets and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 1 day.
  • Step 2 On a large serving platter, scatter rocket and onion.
  • Step 3 Preheat a barbecue to medium-high heat. Pat lamb dry and barbecue for 2-3 mins each side or until char marks form and lamb is medium-rare (54C) in the centre. Place lamb cutlets on the platter. Sprinkle lamb with salt, squeeze lemon juice over and drizzle with oil.
  • Step 4 Scatter remaining mint leaves over the lamb cutlets and serve.
