Ingredients
- 650 g lamb roasts, boneless
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lemon, zest
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp dried oregano
- 1 tbsp dried rosemary
- 1 tbsp dried parsley
- salt and pepper
Aioli
- 150 ml mayonnaise
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- salt and pepper
Keto potato salad
- 75 ml olive oil
- 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 275 g daikon
- 200 g radishes
- 1 red onion
- 3 tbsp fresh chives, chopped
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Cut the meat into smaller pieces. Combine oil, lemon juice, grated zest (only the outermost, yellow part of the rind) and spices in a bowl. Add meat, mix and marinate for at least 10 minutes. You can also prepare it the day before – just cover with plastic wrap and keep in the refrigerator.
- Thread meat onto skewers before you start grilling. Salt and pepper.
- Mix ingredients for the aioli in a bowl.
- Combine olive oil, red wine vinegar and Dijon mustard in a bowl big enough for the salad too.
- Rinse, peel and dice daikon. Soak for 1-2 minutes in lightly salted water. Remove and rinse in cold water or serve lukewarm.
- Rinse, clean and chop radishes. Finely chop red onion and chives. Put everything in the vinaigrette bowl and mix well. Salt and pepper.
- Place skewers on the hot grill and grill for 15 minutes or until the meat is cooked as you want it – rare, medium or well done. Serve
Tip!
If you’re using bamboo or wooden skewers, pre-soak them for at least an hour to avoid burning in the oven or on the grill.
Preparing in the oven
Preheat the oven to 225°C, preferably with the fan forced function on. Place skewers on a wire rack with a baking tray underneath. Bake for 15 minutes or until the meat is cooked through.
