Ingredients

• 500 grams lamb loin or chops
• 2 medium mango
• 150 grams mixed salad greens
• 1 small red onion
• 1 medium cucumber
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 10 grams fresh mint leaves
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, prepare the marinade by combining soy sauce, olive oil, honey, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, and ground coriander. Mix well.

Step 2

Place the lamb in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Ensure the lamb is fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or up to 2 hours for a richer flavor.

Step 3

While the lamb marinates, prepare the salad. Peel and slice the mango into thin strips. Thinly slice the red onion and cucumber. Wash and dry the mixed salad greens.

Step 4

In a large salad bowl, combine the salad greens, mango slices, red onion, and cucumber. Set aside.

Step 5

Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the lamb from the marinade and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if desired. For best results, allow the lamb to rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.

Step 6

Toss the salad with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Arrange the sliced lamb over the top.

Step 7

Garnish the salad with fresh mint leaves. Serve immediately and enjoy!
