Method
Step 1
The recipe would work with any cut of lamb. We used neck fillet and we used lamb chops.Step 2
Prep the lamb to remove any sinew or excess fat, this is more important on a neck fillet where there is sometimes a lot of sinew and fat that needs trimming.Step 3
To make the harissa blend the harissa spice mix with fresh herbs spices and jalapenos and drizzle in some oil as you're blending to make a rich green paste.Step 4
Season the lamb with salt and pepper and then toss in some of the harissa paste, if using fillet it cooks better on a skewer, so allow the meat to be coated in marinade then place on skewers. Can be grilled or pan fried.Step 5
Serve with a mixed fresh salad, we used cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, sliced red onion, fresh chopped parsley, a good glug of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon, a pinch of salt and a grind of black pepper.
