Method
1. Mix all the marinade ingredients and season to taste. Place the lamb steaks in a shallow dish and add the marinade. Cover with clear film and leave to marinate in the fridge for several hours or overnight.
2. Drain the lamb and cook on a medium-hot barbecue for about 10-15 minutes until just cooked, basting with the marinade occasionally and turning once. Garnish the lamb steaks with the fresh mint leaves.
