Lamb Steaks with Citrus Tabbouleh
1-2 leg lamb steaks per serving (the number
will depend on the size of the cuts - ours were quite small)
2 tablespoons sumac (a purplish red spice made from ground berries - it has
a tart flavour)
2 tablespoons olive oil1 clove garlic, crushed
1 cup plain, unsweetened yoghurt
Place the lamb steaks in a flat dish. Mix together
the remaining ingredients and spoon over and under the steaks
and set aside for several hours.
Citrus Tabbouleh
1/2 cup burghul
1 cup coarsely chopped parsley
6 plum tomatoes, chopped finely
2 tablespoons chopped mint
2 tablespoons lemon zest
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
Place the burghul in a bowl and cover with hot
water. Let stand for 30 minutes then drain and squeeze to remove
excess moisture. Combine with the remaining ingredients.
Heat a little oil in a pan and fry the lamb steaks
for about 3 minutes each side. Serve with the tabbouleh and a
few rocket leaves.
