Traditionally made with beef, we've taken this spicy Thai salad and given it a Kiwi twist. Named for the legend of the crying tiger when the hunter took it's cow, this salad packs a healthy punch and a spicy kick.

Ingredients

Weeping tiger salad
  • 4 Quality Mark lamb leg steaks

  • 2 Tbsp fish sauce

  • ¼ cup Sone's Salad Sauce

  • 2 Tbsp honey

    runny
  • 1 Tbsp fresh coriander

    sliced
  • 5 cups salad greens

  • 2 spring onions

    sliced
  • 2 tomatoes

    quartered
  • ⅓ cup fresh coriander

To serve
  • Sone's Salad Sauce

  • mint leaves

  • fresh chilli

    sliced
  • peanuts

  • 4 Tbsp white rice

Method

1

Mix together the marinade ingredients in a wide deep dish. Add the lamb leg steaks and turn, coating them in the marinade. Leave it for up to 4 hours in the fridge - any longer will change the texture of the meat.

2

Put your salad greens in a large bowl and add your onions, tomatoes and coriander. Set aside.

3

Put a pan over a medium heat, with a little oil. Grill the lamb leg steaks for 4 minutes each side until medium rare, brushing with leftover marinade as they cook.

4

Rest for 5 minutes and then thinly slice, scattering over the salad. Top with the toasted rice, peanuts and mint. Serve with extra salad sauce and sliced chillis on the side.
