Are you thinking this spring will get you into shape for summer? Are you planning on eating lighter than you have throughout winter? I know I am. This is a delicious, yet filling recipe that goes very well with anything barbequed and of course flat bread and some sort of aioli. So get organised kids and join me on the quest for less this summer. (Less thigh meat...less rump meat...you catch my drift!) Good luck.

With absolutely anything that needs a bright punchy flavour of freshness to bring it all together. Particularly good with roasted or grilled lamb.
Handfuls of fresh mint leaves added to this is also fantastic.
