SESAME CHILI AND PARSLEY CRUSTED LAMB FILLETS

Steps:

• Combine sesame seeds, chili flakes and parsley in a bowl.
• Combine lamb fillets in a large bowl with the oil.
• Place lamb one at a time in sesame seed mixture and coat each fillet all over.
• Cook either on a lightly oiled grill plate, fry pan, or on the BBQ until browned on both sides and cooked as desired. Cover and stand 5 Min's then slice thickly.
• I served mine over fruity saffron rice, but it also goes well with a crisp green salad topped with tomatoes and bocconcini.

MOROCCAN LAMB FILLET (BACKSTRAP)

Steps:

• Combine all the marinade ingredients in bowl, add lamb and turn to coat each fillet well. Marinade several hours in the fridge.
• Heat a little oil on a grill plate or fry pan, add lamb and cook each side until browned and cooked as desired. (mine were quite thick and it was about 4-5 Min's a side to get a nice pink center.).
• Remove lamb from heat and allow to rest 5 Min's, slice thickly and serve.
• Serve lamb over couscous with a mint yogurt sauce.

THE BEST CHILI

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until just browned, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon.
• Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly golden, about 10 minutes.
• Add the jalapeno and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the tomato paste. Cook, stirring frequently, until coated and fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Stir in the beef broth and crushed tomatoes and bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in the cooked ground beef and any accumulated liquid, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer the chili, partially covered, until the beef is tender and the sauce is slightly thickened, about 30 minutes.
• Stir in the beans and their liquid and simmer uncovered until the beans are softened and the chili is thickened, about 30 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.
• Top with sour cream, Cheddar and scallions. Serve with tortilla chips.

MUSHROOM STUFFED LAMB FILLETS

Steps:

• To make for 4 people just double above ingredients.
• Add oil and butter to a fry pan heat until butter melts. Add onion and garlic and cook until onions are soft.
• Add mushrooms and Worcestershire sauce, stir until mushroom are soft, throw in the thyme, parsley and rosemary and mix well. Add cream, breadcrumbs and pepper to taste combine and remove from heat.
• Place mixture in a separate bowl and add egg and veal mince, stirring until well combined.
• Take a meat mallet and pound lamb fillets to flatten slightly. Spread stuffing mixture all over the lamb fillet, take the second fillet and place on top, secure well with toothpicks.
• Place in an ovenproof dish and bake in pre heated oven 190c for 25-35 Min's (cook time depending on whether you like your meat rarer or more well done.). Remove from oven and rest for 5 Min's then slice in two.
• Serve on a bed of greens topped with red wine gravy. Since we are in October and this is the time, because of Halloween we can get pumpkins. I served pumpkin mash on the side but you can serve with any veg mash or potato.
