SUMAC LAMB STEAKS

Sumac is a great ingredient for bringing an interesting floral tang to heavy meat and oily fish, and these steaks have the acreage to show off its beautiful flavour. I’ve suggested serving them with a salad for a light meal, but potatoes would always be welcome!

SERVES 4

▪ 2tbsp olive oil

▪ 1 garlic clove, crushed

▪ 1tsp salt

▪ Finely grated zest of 1 lemon

▪ 2tbsp sumac, from the spice aisle in supermarkets

▪ 4 lamb leg steaks

▪ Mixed salad, to serve

Preheat the grill to high and line a grill pan with foil. Put the oil, garlic, salt, lemon zest and the sumac in a bowl and mix to combine. Brush the lamb steaks with the mixture on both sides, then lay on the prepared grill pan. Grill the steaks for 4-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown and beginning to char. Serve hot with your choice of salad alongside.
