20.00 ml ground turmeric

700g lamb eye of loin (lamb back strap)
2 tomatoes, cut in half, each half cut into 4 wedges

Instructions:

Heat up your barbecue grill or chargrill on high. Mix mustard powder, paprika, turmeric, and salt on a plate. Coat the lamb evenly in the spice mixture on the plate.
Grill lamb for 4 minutes on each side until medium or cooked to your liking. Grill tomato for 2 minutes on each side until brown and tender. Transfer lamb and tomato to separate plates. Cover lamb loosely with foil and let it rest for 5 minutes.
In a heatproof bowl, combine couscous and butter, then stir in boiling water. Cover and let sit for 5 minutes until liquid is absorbed. Fluff the grains with a fork and mix in grilled tomato, olives, parsley, and shallots. Season with salt to taste.
Plate the grilled tomato and green olive couscous, top with sliced lamb, drizzle with tahini spread, and serve promptly.
