Remember to remove your lamb leg steaks out of the packaging, pat dry and bring to room temperature
Pre heat your griddle or heavy based frying pan until it sizzles when you add a drop of oil
Season the lamb leg steak just prior to cooking
Don’t overcrowd the cooking base
Massage the lamb leg steak with a little olive oil forming a thin film over the meat
Cook over high heat turning the lamb leg steak only once after a rich, golden crust has formed, reduce heat to medium when crust has formed
Cook your lamb leg steak for 4 to 5 minutes each side for medium rare
Finish by adding a large knob of butter when frying or on the griddle
Leave your lamb leg steak to rest in a warm place at least 5 minutes before carving
The lamb leg steak will become more firm as it cooks, gently press with your thumb, the more spring back you get the hotter the protein cells have expand which means the more well done your meat is, for a medium rare steak it should have a soft feel with a little spring back
