Cooking Steps

1

Finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). Thinly slice the red onion. Shred the cos lettuce (see ingredients list). Finely chop the tomato. Finely chop the coriander and parsley. Grate the carrot (unpeeled).

2

In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until softened, 5-6 minutes. Add the balsamic vinegar, water and brown sugar, and simmer until the liquid is nearly evaporated and the mixture is slightly sticky, 3-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and remove from the heat.

3

While the onions are caramelising, in a medium bowl, combine coriander, parsley, garlic, olive oil (2 tbs for 2 people // 4 tbs for 4 people) and the white wine vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

4

Wash out the frying pan and return to a high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Season the lamb leg steaks on both side with salt and pepper. Once the pan is very hot, add the lamb and cook for 2 minutes on each side for medium rare (depending on thickness), or 3 minutes for well done. Set aside on a plate and cover with foil, rest for 5 minutes.

5

While the lamb is resting, heat the mini flour tortillas in a sandwich press or on a plate in the microwave for 10 second bursts, or until warmed through.

6

Thinly slice the lamb. Take everything to the table. Build your tacos by adding some of the lamb and top with the cos lettuce, carrot, tomato and caramelised onions. Drizzle over the chimichurri sauce and crumble over the fetta.
