In addition, the dish is very quick and easy to make. Ingredients 8 lamb cutlets, trimmed, about 400g in total 1 tsp cumin seeds 1 tsp coriander seeds juice of 1/2 lemon 2 garlic cloves, crushed 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil salt and pepper sprigs of fresh mint to garnish minted yogurt sauce ¼ cucumber 150g plain low-fat yogurt 1 garlic clove, crushed 1 tsp bottled mint sauce 1 tbsp chopped fresh mint apricot and almond couscous 280g couscous 100g dried apricots, chopped 500ml boiling vegetable stock 50g whole blanched almonds, toasted 2 tbsp chopped fresh mint 2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander juice of ½ lemon 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil Preparation method Preheat grill to high. Place the lamb cutlets in a shallow dish. Grind the cumin and coriander seeds briefly in a pestle and mortar to crack them, then mix with the lemon juice, garlic and oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Pour the mixture over the lamb cutlets, turn them over to coat both sides and set aside to marinate while you make the sauce. To make the mint sauce: cut the cucumber in half lengthways and scoop out the seeds with a teaspoon. Grate the cucumber coarsely and drain off any excess water. Mix with the yogurt, garlic, mint sauce and fresh mint. Set aside. Place the lamb cutlets under the griller and grill for 10-12 minutes, turning once. The cutlets will be medium-rare; if you prefer them medium to well-done cook for 12-14 minutes. Meanwhile, put the couscous and apricots in a large bowl and pour over the boiling stock. Stir well, then cover with a plate and set aside to soak for 5 minutes. Stir the almonds, chopped mint and coriander, lemon juice and oil into the couscous. Spoon the couscous onto plates, top each serving with 2 lamb cutlets and put a spoonful of the sauce on the side. Garnish with sprigs of fresh mint and serve immediately. Print
