Ingredients
3tbsp Asda Fat Free Greek Style Natural Yogurt
1tbsp harissa paste
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1tbsp ground coriander
1 red onion grated
Juice and zest of 1 lemon
1tbsp rapeseed oil
25g Grower’s Selection Coriander leaves picked and stalks chopped
Black pepper
0.9kg Butcher’s Selection Boneless Lamb Leg Joint
85g pack Grower’s Selection Watercress
Extra Special Mint Sauce
Method
1For the marinade, put the yogurt in a bowl. Add harissa paste, garlic, coriander, onion, lemon, rapeseed oil, coriander and black pepper. Mix together.
2Unroll the lamb joint and lay out as flat as possible. Massage the marinade over it, then cover with clingfilm, put in the fridge and leave for at least 2 hrs, or ideally overnight.
3About 10-20 mins before you’re ready to cook the lamb, light your BBQ – the heat needs to be high.
4Put the lamb on the hot grill (or a hot griddle if cooking indoors) and cook for 10 mins each side until crisp, golden and done through. Put on a warm plate, cover with foil and rest for 30 mins.
5Carve the lamb and serve with watercress, mint sauce and roast lemon garnish.
