Marmite and New Zealand lamb? Here us out... lightly thinned down with a vinegar and boiling water, this marmite paste adds a umami hit to the tasty lamb rumps that is undeniable. Trust us, it caramelises beautifully when roasted or barbecued We love to serve it with a fresh Greek-style salad full of the best summer vegetables - capsicums, tomatoes, cucumbers and of course, a little feta cheese on the side.
