Lamb minute steak sandwiches with onion jam
Karen's fantastic lamb steak sandwich recipe is a snip to prepare. She cuts lamb leg steak into thin slices before quickly searing in a hot pan until nice and brown on the outside yet still pink in the middle. Karen also shares a fantastic recipe for onion jam, but of course you can use a good quality shop-bought version if you're short on time.
Ingredients
Lamb minute steak sandwiches
- 450g of lamb leg steaks
- 4 bread buns, or baps, cut through the middle
- 1/2 red onion, peeled and finely sliced
- 2 tomatoes , finely sliced
- salad leaves
- onion jam, or use recipe below
Onion jam
Method
1
To make the onion jam, heat the oil in a saucepan and add the onions. Cook over a gentle heat until they are soft and translucent with no colour
2
Add the remaining ingredients (except the salt) and continue to cook until the onions are caramelised and very soft, for about 20–30 minutes
3
Season with salt and allow the onion jam to cool completely before storing in a covered container or jar with a lid in the fridge
4
Meanwhile, carefully cut the lamb steaks into thin slices using aq very sharp knife. Season them to taste on both sides with salt and black pepper
5
Drizzle a little olive oil in a large frying pan or griddle and cook the lamb steaks over a high heat for about 1 minute on each side – you want a nice browned crust with a pink interior
6
Assemble the sandwiches by piling lots of salad leaves inside the bread buns, then add the sliced tomatoes and red onion slices and finish off by placing the cooked lamb steaks on top with a large spoonful of onion jam
