Method
- Heat a griddle pan over a medium-high heat, then griddle the lamb neck fillet, for 8-10 minutes until browned and cooked through, turning halfway. After 2 minutes, add the red onions, tossed in 1 tsp light olive oil, to the pan, then cook on both sides until browned and soft.
- Meanwhile, put the greek yogurt in a shallow dish. Spoon 2 tbsp of the yogurt into a small bowl and stir in the tahini until smooth, adding a splash of water to loosen. Spoon the tahini mixture over the yogurt and roughly mix together, then sprinkle with the sliced olives, walnuts and raisins.
- Serve with the griddled lamb and onions along with warm flatbreads, mixed salad leaves and lemon wedges for squeezing.
