Ingredients
For the lamb

- 1 tbsp harissa paste
- ½ tsp cumin
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 4-8 lamb cutlets depending on the size

Instructions
- Place the yoghurt, harissa paste, cumin and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a shallow bowl and mix to combine. Add the lamb cutlets and turn to coat. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes (or refrigerate overnight).
