Cooking Steps
• Finely chop garlic. Thinly slice cucumber, radish and tomato.
• In a medium bowl, combine lamb mince, Tuscan herb seasoning, fine breadcrumbs (see ingredients), the egg, garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper. • Using damp hands, roll heaped spoonfuls of lamb mixture into small meatballs (4-5 per person). Transfer to a plate.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • Cook meatballs, turning, until browned and cooked through, 8-10 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Remove from heat, then add onion chutney and a splash of water. Toss meatballs to coat. Set aside. • In a large bowl, combine mixed salad leaves, cucumber, radish, tomato and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste.
• Divide garden salad between plates. • Top with Mediterranean lamb meatballs, then spoon over any remaining glaze. • Drizzle with creamy pesto dressing to serve. Enjoy!
