  • Place the mint leaves into a food processor with the remaining mint chutney ingredients and blend until smooth.
  • For the mango salad, place all the mango salad ingredients into a bowl and stir.
  • To serve, carve the lamb into portions and place onto serving plates with a spoonful of the mango salad and a dollop of mint chutney.
