Equipment

  • 1 oven
  • 1 baking dish
  • 1 aluminium foil
  • 1 small bowl

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 200°C. Trim excess fat from lamb and wrap some aluminium foil around the bones to prevent burning. Coat (or spray) lamb with olive oil, season with salt and pepper.
  2. Place on a baking dish and cook for 20 minutes for medium, or to your liking.
  3. Combine the yoghurt, garlic, mint, dukkah and salt in a small bowl.
  4. Serve 3-4 lamb cutlets per person with dukkah yoghurt and a green salad. Garnish lamb with extra dukkah.

Notes

Tip
I like this recipe because if required you can serve the kids’ lamb plain and the adults’ with the yoghurt.
Tip
For the kids, I usually serve a single cutlet as Lollypop Lamb. If your kids don’t fancy actually touching the meat/bone, cut up into small pieces. So tender and tasty.
Variation
Choose a dukkah without chilli so that if the kids are partial to spicy, but not hot, they will love the creamy yoghurt.
