lamb medallions on zucchini pancakes (serves 4)
2¼ pounds (1kg) lamb loin
12 oz. (350 g) zucchini, grated
1 carrot, grated
1 egg white
3 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
2 tablespoons wholewheat flour
2 garlic clove, finely chopped
¼ teaspoon salt black pepper, freshly ground
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 tablespoons chopped chives as garnish
1.
Cut the loin into 8 equal slices. Place each slices between plastic wrap and pound to about ¼
inch (5 mm.) thickness. Set aside.
2.
Combine all the pancake ingredients except the oil in a bowl and mix well. Heat the oil in a large
frying pan over medium heat. Drop the mixture into the pan forming 4 pancakes. Fry the
pancakes until lightly browned, about 3 minutes on each side. Remove to a platter and keep
warm. Cook four more pancakes the same way.
3.
Increase the heat to high. Add the medallions and cook for about 2 minutes on each side.
4.
Divide the pancakes onto 4 plates and top each pancake with medallion. Sprinkle with chopped
chives and serve immediately.
