Method

  1. Step 1

    Combine the yoghurt, ginger, garlic, garam masala and turmeric in a glass or ceramic bowl. Add the lamb and toss to coat. Cover and place in the fridge for at least 1 hour or overnight to develop the flavours.
  2. Step 2

    To make the chilli-lime dressing, combine the oil, lime juice, chilli, garlic, ginger, lime rind and cumin seeds in a screw-top jar. Season.
  3. Step 3

    Thread lamb onto 12 metal or soaked bamboo skewers. Spray with olive oil spray. Heat a barbecue grill or chargrill on medium-high. Cook lamb, turning, for 7-8 mins or until lightly charred and just cooked through. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil. Set aside for 5 mins to rest.
  4. Step 4

    Combine lentils, tomato, nectarine, lettuce, cucumber, coriander and mint in a large bowl. Drizzle with half the dressing and toss to coat. Season.
  5. Step 5

    Divide the lentil salad and lamb skewers among serving plates. Drizzle with remaining dressing to serve.

    Swap me: Try other lamb cuts, such as rump steak or backstrap, in this recipe.

    SERVE WITH lime halves
