This spiced lamb with sundried tomato hummus is inspired by a Middle Eastern meal called Hummus B’lahmeh (hummus with lamb). My version has a few added extras, including lots more veggies. I really love this meal. It’s filling, very moreish and quite different from your traditional meat and three veg. I also find it very satisfying making my own hummus […]

The flavours in each part of this summer entertaining main course complement each other perfectly. From lamb and haloumi skewers, to rosemary chicken nibbles, salad and vegetables, there’s something to suit everyone’s tastes! Most of this meal can be made in advance, making things a lot less stressful when you’re entertaining guests. Then fire up the BBQ and leave the […]

Lamb stuffed eggplant is a lower carb meal full of punchy flavours. Eggplant halves are stuffed with Moroccan-flavoured lamb mince, topped with cheese and pinenuts, then baked until golden. Delicious served with a Greek-style salad. This recipe was inspired by a meal I had at Kuzina Cafe a few months ago. I’ve been itching for eggplants to be more readily available so […]

This lamb and orzo salad is a great summery meal. It’s full of fresh herbs and lots of interesting textures. Delicious eaten warm or cold, and perfect for taking on a picnic! If you’re not keen to use sausages, most other meats would work well. Try lamb leg steaks or diced chicken thighs (and cook in a frying pan rather […]

This spinach and feta stuffed lamb is a lighter version of roast lamb, with lots of greens and not as many carbs. The minty dressing finishes the meal off nicely. If you can’t find a butterflied lamb leg, you could use individual lamb steaks instead, folded in half and secured with a toothpick to enclose the spinach and feta filling. […]

These Greek-style nachos are a cross between nachos and a salad. They’re a fast, easy and really tasty weeknight dinner. Royce and I both love nachos, so I tend to add a few extra salad ingredients to justify having them more frequently! I’ve called this version Greek-style as they use lamb mince, feta and olives, with a yoghurt sour cream […]

This twist on traditional spaghetti and meatballs is fresh and flavoursome. Make the pasta and sauce while the lamb meatballs are baking and you can have dinner on the table in around half an hour. Easy! The whipped feta is a delicious substitute for grated cheese and pairs so well with the lamb meatballs and pesto spaghetti. Give this recipe […]

Shepherd’s pie is the perfect winter comfort food to fill hungry tummies. This version uses kumara in the mash which goes so well with the lamb. Did you know that Shepherd’s pie uses lamb mince while cottage pie uses beef mince? I only learnt that recently, although it seems so obvious now! This recipe is one of my mum’s – […]

A fabulous combination of flavours! This sophisticated yet easy cumin spiced lamb will go down a treat, whether you’re cooking for yourself, feeding the family or entertaining guests. Yoghurt hummus sauce is topped with a roasted veggie salad of carrots, beets and kale chips together with pearl couscous and feta. Paired with the lamb it’s an unusual but surprisingly good […]

With tender, flavoursome lamb, chewy flatbreads, plenty of crisp salad and a sprinkling of crunchy almonds, this meal is the ultimate combination of textures and flavours. Depending on your mood (or the […]
