Ingredients
  

For the lamb

  • 100 g coconut yoghurt or organic full fat Greek yoghurt
  • 1 tbsp harissa paste
  • ½ tsp cumin
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 4-8 lamb cutlets depending on the size

For the chunky green dressing

  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 50 g pitted green olives
  • 1 large handful flat leaf parsley
  • Pinch sea salt

To serve

  • Hasselback potatoes
  • British asparagus roasted
  • Pomegranate seeds optional

Instructions
 

  • Place the yoghurt, harissa paste, cumin and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a shallow bowl and mix to combine. Add the lamb cutlets and turn to coat. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes (or refrigerate overnight).
  • To make the dressing, place the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, olives, parsley and salt in a small food processor and process to a chunky consistency. Set aside.
  • Heat the remaining olive oil in a large pan over a medium-high heat. Cook the lamb cutlets for 3 -4 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired level of doneness.
  • Divide the cutlets between serving plates and serve with hasselback potatoes and roasted asparagus. Drizzle with dressing and sprinkle with pomegranate seeds to serve.
