Ingredients
1.5kg boned lamb shoulder
2 teaspoons allspice
1/3 cup olive oil
1 baby cos lettuce heart, trimmed, leaves separated
400g tomato medley mix, halved
1 Lebanese cucumber, halved, sliced
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 cup torn fresh mint leaves
1/4 cup lemon juice
Lebanese bread, warmed, to serve
Lebanese garlic sauce
6 garlic cloves, peeled, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 egg white
1 cup rice bran oil
2 tablespoons iced water
Method
Step 1
Place lamb in a shallow glass or ceramic dish. Add allspice and 1/4 cup oil. Rub to coat lamb all over. Cover. Refrigerate for 2 hours, if time permits.
Step 2
Make Lebanese garlic sauce: Place garlic, salt and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a food processor. Process, scraping down sides often, until garlic is finely chopped. Add egg white. Process until smooth. With motor operating, gradually add half the oil in a slow steady stream. Then gradually add remaining lemon juice in a slow steady stream, followed by remaining oil. Gradually add iced water. Process until mixture is white and fluffy. Spoon into a bowl. Cover. Refrigerate until required.
Step 3
Preheat a barbecue chargrill (with hood) on medium-low. Cook lamb, fat-side down, for 15 minutes. Turn lamb. Cook, with barbecue hood closed, for 30 to 35 minutes for medium or until cooked to your liking. Transfer to a plate. Cover loosely with foil. Stand for 10 minutes.
Step 4
Combine lettuce, tomato, cucumber, onion and mint in a bowl. Place lemon juice and remaining oil in a screw-top jar. Season with salt and pepper. Secure lid. Shake to combine. Drizzle dressing over salad. Toss to combine.
Step 5
Slice lamb. Serve with salad, Lebanese bread and garlic sauce.
Notes
Cook's note: The garlic sauce makes double the amount you'll need, but can't be halved because of the egg white.
Lebanese garlic sauce: This Lebanese garlic sauce is known as toum, the Arabic word for garlic. It's particularly good with chicken, but also works with meat and vegetables.
Preparation time excludes 2 hours refrigeration time.
