Spiced butterflied lamb leg with cumin roast vegetables, fresh spinach and cooling mint yoghurt sauce.
1. Set oven to 220ºC.
Trim carrots, wedge beetroots and slice capsicum. Toss together cherry tomatoes, 2 tsp cumin, 1 tbsp oil, salt and pepper. Roast in oven for 20-25 minutes until tender.
2. Coat lamb with 3 tsp paprika, 1 tbsp oil, salt and pepper. Heat frypan or griddle pan over medium-high heat. Cook lamb for 8-10 minutes each side or to your liking (see notes). Set aside to rest.
3. Blend together yoghurt with mint leaves. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Slice lamb and squeeze over lemon juice.
5. Divide roast vegetables, spinach and lamb among plates. Spoon over mint yoghurt to taste.
NOTES
Cook time for the lamb will depend on its size. If you find yours is taking longer than expected you can finish the cooking off in the oven with the vegetables.
Toss the beetroot separately to avoid staining.
No lamb option - butterflied lamb leg is replaced with chicken breast fillet. Cook for 4-6 minutes each side in the frypan or roast in oven for 15 minutes until cooked through.
