Simple Lamb Salad



As I’m really busy at the moment I’m thinking of making my next challenge, low mess cooking. Most nights I really don’t want to spend any more time than necessary cooking. Although, you’ll hardly every find me ordering takeaway as an alternative. So I’m currently playing around with oven roasting of vegetables and meats as a means of mess minimization.
The simple lamb salad is the first attempt at a low mess meal. You’ve seen this one before as a Lamb Salad and now we have a simple version which although lacks the aesthetics of the former, but only required a bowl, chopping board and an oven tray to make.

Recipe:
- Lamb Strips
- Swiss Brown Mushrooms
- Cherry Tomatoes
- Red Onion
- Baby Bocconcini

Sundries:
- Balsamic Vinegar
- Flake Salt
- Olive Oil
- Pepper

Roast Lamb (seasoned with olive oil and pepper) and Mushroom (seasoned with flake salt and olive oil) on backing tray in the oven at medium heat for 15 minutes.

Combine lamb, mushrooms, chopped onion and tomatoes in a bowl with dressing of balsamic vinegar, olive oil and flake salt.

Score: 2 Chefs
This recipe could end up been better than the original. Next time concentrate on the seasoning of the lamb. It seems to be the linchpin in this recipe for flavour.
