Savor Greek-style lamb and barley bowl for a simple, healthy weeknight meal that's easy to whip up.
Ingredients:
  • 300g pearl barley
  • 1 Lebanese cucumber, peeled into ribbons
  • 1 large beetroot, peeled, cut into long matchsticks
  • 4 radishes, thinly sliced
  • 350g mixed tomatoes, sliced
  • 60g olive
  • 100g drained marinated fetta, crumbled
  • 600g Boneless Mini Lamb Shoulder Roast, trimmed, cut into 2cm pieces
  • 42.00 gm lemon juice
  • 5.00 gm ground paprika
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 2.50 gm ground cumin
Instructions:
  • For making delicious lamb souvlaki, mix lamb with oil, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, oregano, thyme, and cumin in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add seasoning and toss well to combine. Let it sit for 30 minutes to enhance the flavors.
  • Simmer the barley in a generously-sized saucepan of boiling water for 20 minutes, or until it is cooked to your desired tenderness. Once done, thoroughly drain the barley.
  • Preheat a barbecue grill or chargrill to medium-high heat. Cook half of the lamb, turning occasionally, for 5 minutes or until desired doneness. Transfer to a plate, cover with foil to keep warm, and repeat with the rest of the lamb.
  • Evenly distribute the barley among serving bowls. Layer cucumber, beetroot, radish, tomato, and olives over the barley. Top with lamb and sprinkle with feta.
