Method

  1. 1

    Mix the garlic, ginger, ground coriander, paprika, half the lemon juice and the oil into a paste and rub over the lamb.

  2. 2

    Marinate for 5 minutes, then grill or fry over high heat for 4–5 minutes each side until charred and cooked to your liking. Rest for 2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, toss the tomato, red onion, chilli, coriander and remaining lemon juice for a kachumbari-style salad.

  4. 4

    Taste and adjust the seasoning.

  5. 5

    Serve the lamb with the salad.

Use up the rest

Cooking this for one leaves 25 g coriander. These recipes finish them off, so plan one later in the same week.
