lamb cutlets with basil sauce Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Slap the cutlets with the heel of your hand to flatten them slightly. Then bash up your thyme in a pestle and mortar and add a little olive oil. Mix together, then rub the oil over the cutlets and season both sides of them.
  • Cook the mushrooms dry on the bars of your hot griddle Just grill them on both sides to mark them and put them into a large bowl. Once the mushrooms are done you can put the lamb on the barbie.
  • When cooked, put the lamb cutlets into the bowl with the mushrooms and drizzle with a little olive oil. Tear over the parsley, in quite large pieces, and add a good squeeze of lemon juice. Season lightly and toss around. Place to one side to rest, to allow all the lovely juices to get sucked up by the mushrooms.
  • Meanwhile to make a really quick sauce. In a pestle and mortar pound up the pine nuts until you have a mushy pulp. Remove the mixture to a bowl, then use the pestle and mortar to bash the basil up into a pulp. Add this to the pine nuts and loosen with extra virgin olive oil so that the sauce easily drops off the end of a spoon. Now you need to balance it with quite a lot of balsamic vinegar to give it a good zing, almost like a mint sauce, but add it to taste. Give the lamb and mushrooms a final toss. serve this up on a big platter and let everyone help themselves. Have the sauce and a simple salad on the side.
