Method

1. For the lamb cutlets: rough cut the shallot and put in food processor with the handful of fresh coriander – hold a few stalks back for the beans – and blitz to a paste.

2. Add the barley miso, ginger juice and mirin and blitz again. Pour over lamb cutlets and leave to marinate for 1 hour.

3. For the green beans: meanwhile, top and tail the green beans and blanch for 2-3 minutes in boiling salted water. Remove and plunge them into iced water for a few seconds and drain. In a dry pan, toast the sesame seeds.

4. Heat a griddle pan and cook cutlets for 2 ½ mins per side, then leave to rest. Drain beans and toss with sesame seeds and the remaining coriander stalks.

Not sure what these low ratings are about - I think it's fantastic. Ginger juice is a neat trick that I'll be using for a lot of sauces from now on. I'm going to make a 30 cutlet batch this weekend by searing and roasting at 150C for 22 mins. Using a baking dish with an inset metal mesh, and some hot water underneath helps keep them moist. A perfect follow up to a big batch of sushi with some miso soup - well done Nic!
