Leg of Lamb with Sardine Sauce

PREPARATION:

• 1

  In a small bowl, crush the sardines into a coarse paste, using a fork.

• 2

  Add the mayonnaise, onion, pepper, lemon juice and mustard (if using) and stir.

• 3

  Arrange the sliced meat flat onto plates, covering all but the rim of the plate (if you want to mimic the ‘Vitello Tonnato’ look).

• 4

  Drizzle with the sauce and sprinkle with the beets and cucumber.
