Ingredients
- 12 lamb cutlets
- to season sea salt
- to season black pepper
- 5 3/10 oz plain flour
- 2 tbsp ground cumin
- 1 tbsp fine sea salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- to shallow fry olive oil
- to serve potato salad
Yoghurt Dipping Sauce
- 0.67 cup Greek yoghurt
- 1/4 cup coriander
- 1 tsp hot mustard
- 1 lemon
- to taste salt
Instructions
- 1Season the lamb cutlets on both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and half of the ground cumin; let them rest for 5 minutes.
- 2In a shallow bowl, whisk together the plain flour, the remaining ground cumin, and fine sea salt until evenly combined.
- 3Place the beaten eggs in a second shallow bowl and the panko breadcrumbs in a third bowl.
- 4Working one cutlet at a time, dredge it in the flour mixture, turning to coat all sides, then shake off any excess flour.
- 5Dip the floured cutlet into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip back into the bowl, and immediately press it into the panko breadcrumbs, ensuring a firm, even coating.
- 6Arrange the crumb‑coated cutlets on a plate and keep them refrigerated for 10 minutes to help the crust set.
- 7Heat a generous splash of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium‑high heat (about 356°F / 350°F).
- 8When the oil shimmers, add the cutlets in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan; fry for 2–3 minutes per side, adjusting the time for thickness, until the crust is golden brown and the meat reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (145°F) for medium‑rare.
- 9Transfer the cooked cutlets to a tray set on a rack, covering loosely with foil to keep warm while you finish the remaining batches.
- 10Taste the finished cutlets and add a pinch of extra salt if desired.
- 11While the cutlets rest, whisk the yoghurt dipping sauce ingredients together if you have not done so already.
- 12Serve the lamb cutlets hot, accompanied by the lemon‑coriander yoghurt dip and a simple potato salad on the side.
