Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 500g new potatoes
Meat
- 2 lamb leg steaks
Other Ingredients
- 1 tsp olive oil
- bunch cherry tomatoes on the vine
- 3 tbsp houmous
- 10 pitted green olives, roughly chopped
- small handful flat-leaf parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Cook the potatoes: Boil the new potatoes in salted water for about 15 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork.
- Prepare the grill or griddle: While the potatoes cook, heat up your grill or griddle pan to medium-high heat for searing the lamb.
- Season and cook the lamb: When the potatoes are nearly done, season the lamb steaks with salt and pepper, rub with 1 teaspoon olive oil. Grill or griddle the lamb for 3-4 minutes on each side until cooked to your desired doneness.
- Cook the tomatoes: Add the cherry tomatoes to the grill or griddle halfway through the lamb cooking time, allowing them to blister and burst for juicy flavor.
- Prepare the crushed potatoes: Drain the cooked potatoes thoroughly and return them to the pan. Gently crush them using a fork or potato masher to break them up but keep some texture.
- Combine flavors: Stir the hummus, chopped green olives, and chopped parsley into the crushed potatoes. Season the mixture well with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve: Plate the crushed hummus potatoes alongside the grilled lamb steaks and juicy tomatoes, serving immediately for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- For a fresh twist, try making the lamb, chickpea, and potato salad variation by mixing cooled boiled potatoes with hummus, olives, parsley, natural yogurt, chickpeas, and spring onions.
- Adjust cooking times for lamb steaks based on thickness and preferred doneness.
- Use good quality hummus and fresh parsley to enhance flavors.
- To keep the dish gluten-free, ensure all ingredients like hummus are gluten-free labeled.
