Ingredients

  • 2 x 250g packs British Lamb Diced Leg Steak
  • Coriander leaves, to serve (optional)

Marinade

  • tbsp curry powder
  • 1 tsp thyme leaves
  • 3 clove/s garlic, finely grated
  • 25g ginger
  • 1 tsp all-purpose seasoning
  • ½ Scotch bonnet chilli, finely chopped (deseeded, if liked)
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil (such as rapeseed, vegetable or sunflower)
  • 1 tsp cider vinegar
  • tsp fine salt
  • 160ml can Essential Coconut Cream

Method

  1. Put the lamb in a large bowl and mix in all the marinade ingredients apart from the coconut cream; season with black pepper, cover and chill for 6 hours. After 6 hours, whisk the coconut cream in a bowl with a fork, then stir into the lamb mixture and chill overnight.

  2. Prepare and light the barbecue. When the coals are white- hot, thread the lamb onto 4 skewers, discarding any remaining marinade, and put on the grill. Leave until the meat comes away clean from the grill (about 8 minutes), then turn. Repeat until all sides have been cooked (a further 4-7 minutes) and the meat is thoroughly browned and cooked through.

  3. Remove the skewers from the barbecue, cover loosely with foil to rest for a few minutes, then serve on a platter; scatter over the coriander leaves, if liked. This is good with the green sauce from the prawns, too (serve in a bowl on the side).
