Marinated lamb with tomatoes and mozzarella
1 hour 20 min
I had bought some lamb steaks for dinner but had no idea what I was going to do with them. After lots of thought I decided to make a simple marinade and then roast in the oven with mozzarella on top. It was lovely; I served it with a bacon and rosemary potato rosti (check my othe recipes!) and savoy cabbage - it was a deliciously satisfying meal!

Pour the olive oil and balsamic vinegar into a baking dish; mix in garlic and rosemary. Season the lamb steaks with salt and pepper then coat in marinade; toss in cherry tomatoes. Cover and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.- Preheat the oven to 190 C / Gas mark 5. Remove the steaks from the fridge.
- Remove the steaks from the fridge and bake in preheated oven, covered with foil, for about 15-30 minutes depending on how rare you like your meat. Remove the foil and place the mozzarella slices on the steaks during the last 5 minutes of cooking so it has time to melt.
