Equipment

  • Oven grill
  • Baking tray
  • Blender, chopper or food processor

Ingredients

  • 500 g lamb leg steaks or rump steaks or backstrap
  • ¼ cup Dukkah mix
  • Olive oil ⅓ cup
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 4 pieces Lebanese bread/flatbread
  • Lemon 2
  • 1 cucumber
  • 200 g baby tomatoes
  • ¼ bunch mint
  • 2 cans chickpeas 125g per can
  • 150 g artichoke hearts
  • 1.5 tablespoon pine nuts
  • 1 tablespoon tahini
  • 1.5 tablespoon water
  • 90 g baby rocket
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat the grill in your oven and place a baking tray under the grill.
    TIP: This will heat the tray which we will use to sear the meat later.
  • Slice lamb into 2 cm pieces and then add to a bowl with dukkah, salt and pepper and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Mix until all pieces of lamb are evenly coated.

  • Carefully remove the tray from under the grill and using tongs, spread lamb pieces evenly on it. Replace under the grill for 6-8 minutes (depending on how well you like your lamb and how close it is to the grill - check after 6 minutes). Place it on the lowest rack available.
  • Crush garlic to easily peel it. Slice flatbread into quarters. Juice 2 lemons. Slice cucumber in half lengthwise and then into fingers. Slice tomatoes into quarters. Pick leaves from the mint. Set aside.

  • After 6 minutes, check on the lamb and if it is starting to look crispy, turn and return to the grill for another 2 minutes, then remove from the grill and set aside to rest.
  • In a blender, chopper or food processor add garlic, drained chickpeas, artichoke hearts (use a fork to transfer them from the jar to the blender), tahini, pine nuts, half the lemon juice (about 3 tbsp), 1.5 tablespoons olive oil and water. Blitz until it forms a chunky hummus. You can serve your children’s portion of hummus to their plates now, then add salt and pepper to the mixture and blend again.

  • Make a dressing with the remaining lemon juice (about 3 tbsp), 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt and pepper.

  • To serve kids, place flatbread, tomatoes, and cucumber spears on each plate with some pieces of lamb.
    To serve adults, place four pieces of flatbread, a handful of rocket, mint, tomatoes and cucumber spears on each plate with three large spoonfuls of hummus and top with dukkah lamb. Drizzle dressing over salad.
