help with this recipe!

I fancy trying this for dinner tonight, but it fails to mention when to cook the meat! I'm assuming it is uncooked, and you layer it on the bread before grilling. What do you think?

I see what you mean! I am really not sure. Shame though, cos the idea and the flavours sounds great.

I hate crap recipe instructions like this!

I suspect you're supposed to grill it, but I'd be worried about it being cooked properly before the bread starts to burn under the grill, so I'd probably fry it lightly first.

Phew! glad i wasn't just being dumb ;)

Becausei'mworthit - i thought that too, so thank you thats what i shall do!

Hope its yummy!

Is it maybe meant to be served like beef carpaccio? just grilled for a tiny amount of time?

Sounds yuk if it is. I would fry it first, like what has been suggested.

Lamb mince rare/half rare? Bleurgh! [official response]

I think it is meant to be eaten raw :(

It's meant to be had raw, which is why it says it has to be very fresh, imo.

yes, I agree. I wouldn't fancy raw lamb I must admit.

Bleurgh! I could cope with steak tartare, but somehow the idea of raw lamb does not fill me with excitement!

No, can't say I would be running off to try that myself either.

But then not keen on tartare either....
