Ingredients

12 lean lamb cutlets or chops

Salt and freshly milled black pepper

5-10ml/1-2tsp allspice powder

Zest and juice of ½ large lemon

30ml/2tbsp extra virgin olive oil

For the Jewelled Couscous:

450g/1lb couscous

50g/2oz butter

600ml/1pint good,hot vegetable stock

100g/4oz flaked almonds, toasted

1 pomegranate cut in half, seeds removed and reserved

Small handful freshly chopped mint

Freshly chopped coriander leaves, to garnish

Directions

Place the cutlets in a large bowl,

season and add the allspice, lemon zest and juice and extra virgin olive oil. Mix well,

cover and marinate for 2 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.

To prepare the couscous, put the couscous and butter in a large shallow heatproof bowl, add the stock, stir gently, cover and leave to stand until the liquid is absorbed (this will take about 5 minutes).

Fluff up the couscous with a fork, and add the almonds and pomegranate seeds.

Stir in the mint and season.

Cook the cutlets under a preheated moderate grill for 4-6 minutes on each side.

Spoon the couscous on to a large serving plate, add the cutlets, garnish with the coriander leaves and serve immediately.
