This grilled stone fruit and lamb salad is here to turn heads. Juicy, caramelised apricots meet peppery rocket, creamy feta, and a handful of crunchy toasted almonds. The whole thing gets dressed up with a fragrant cumin and coriander-spiced vinaigrette that’s equal parts zesty and irresistible.

Then comes the hero move tender slices of grilled lamb rump, adding just the right amount of savoury magic to balance that sweet, smokey fruit. It’s sunshine on a plate, and you’ll be coming back for seconds.
