Crispy baharat fried lamb in white bean hummus and chimichurri
Arabic 25 Mins Prep · 180 Mins Cook
- Preheat the oven to 160°C, gas mark 3.
- Season the whole lamb breast with salt and pepper and put into a large roasting tray. Pour over the lamb stock, cover tightly with foil and cook in the oven for 2-3 hours, or until the meat comes away from the bone easily.
- Meanwhile, prepare the hummus by placing all the ingredients in a blender and blitz until smooth.
- Once cooked, remove the lamb from the stock and allow to cool.
- Once the lamb is cool enough to handle, remove all the meat from the bones in large chunks and set aside.
- Heat a frying pan over a medium-high heat and add a generous glug of Mediterranean extra virgin oil. Add the chilli flakes and then fry the lamb until nice and crisp, giving it a pinch of salt as it cooks.
- When the lamb is crisp transfer it to a large bowl and toss with the baharat spice mix.
- To make the chimichurri, combine all the ingredients together in a serving bowl and season well.
- Serve the crispy lamb on top of the hummus with the labneh and chimichurri. Garnish with mint leaves and pomegranate jewels.
