The Bombay spice mix is very mild, but you can keep some lamb plain for little children. Alternatively use BBQ grill to cook lamb for about 3 minutes each side for medium. Use paper towels to pat lamb dry.

Mint Potatoes

  • 1 bag diced potatoes, any liquid drained
  • ¾ red onion, sliced 1cm
  • 2 tablespoons mint leaves
  • 2 tablespoons butter
