Greek lamb fry

Originally I was going to make lamb skewers with this recipe but the meat was cut too small, so couldn’t thread them onto a skewer. I decided to fry the pieces instead and served them in a pitta bread with a crispy salad and spiced sauce. This super easy Greek lamb fry is perfect for parties or laid-back suppers.

Ingredients

400 g diced lamb of shoulder
1 shallot or small red onion
½ red bell pepper
½ red bell pepper
For the marinade:
2 cloves of garlic
1 tsp olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tbsp chopped parsley
1 tbsp chopped mint
1 chilli finely chopped (optional)

Method

Mix the marinade and pour over the meat in a bowl. Mix well, then rest in the fridge for minimum 30 minutes, up to overnight.
Slice or chop the onion and red pepper.
Heat a spoonful of oil in a frying pan and sauté them for 5 minutes. Then add the lamb (including the marinade) and stir-fry for 5 minutes until cooked through.
Alternatively, cut the peppers and onion into big chunks and add them to the marinated meat, then thread the lamb and veggies (alternating) onto metallic or pre-soaked wooden skewers. Then barbecue or grill them, turning regularly, until charred.
Serve warm tucked in flatbread with a salad and condiments of your choice.
