Technique to learn

Pan-glaze reduction

Simmering a mixture of acidic, sweet, and savory liquids until water evaporates, leaving a thick sauce that coats meat.

Instructions

Step 1: Season lamb cutlets generously on both sides with fine salt and smoked paprika.
Step 2: Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Step 3: Sear lamb cutlets for 3 to 4 minutes on the first side until deep brown, then turn and sear for another 2 to 3 minutes.

Step 4: Transfer cutlets to a warm plate to rest while preparing the sauce.

Step 5: Reduce skillet heat to medium, add minced garlic and ground bush tomato, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 6: Pour in apple vinegar, brown sugar, and halal beef stock, stirring well to combine.

Step 7: Simmer sauce for 3 to 4 minutes until it thickens into a glossy glaze.

Step 8: Return cutlets to the pan, turning once to coat thoroughly in glaze, and serve hot.

Cooking tips

Bush tomato adds a savory tomato-like depth; keep pan heat at medium while blooming it to prevent burning.
