Method
- In a large dish, mix the yogurt with the harissa, garlic and season with salt and pepper. Add the lamb leg steaks, toss to coat and leave for 10 minutes.
- Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan. Fry the steaks over a medium-high heat for about 8 minutes (depending on thickness), turning once halfway. Remove from the pan and leave to rest.
- To make the crunchy salad rinse the red onion under cold water (to remove any harshness), drain and place in a bowl. Shred the carrot and mix with the almonds. Stir through the lamb’s lettuce and dress with the extra-virgin olive oil, orange juice and some seasoning.
- Serve the lamb with the salad and raita on the side.
