Mouthwater­ing polenta lamb leg steak

-

Serve this easy-to-prepare meat dish with a helping of vegetable couscous.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium fry-pan on medium heat and cook lamb for about 3 minutes each side, until golden. Set aside, uncovered, to rest for about 5 minutes.

While lamb cooks, bring stock to the boil in a medium pot on high heat. Once boiling turn off heat, add couscous, salt and a drizzle of olive oil. Stir, cover and leave for 5 minutes, then fluff up grains with a fork.

Peel and grate carrot; dice tomato 2cm; remove core and seeds from capsicum and dice 1cm; roughly chop spinach leaves. Fold all remaining vege couscous ingredient­s through cooked couscous and season to taste with salt and pepper. Mix together lemon mayo ingredient­s in a small bowl.

To serve, divide vege couscous between plates and top with polenta-crusted lamb leg steak. Drizzle with lemon mayo.
