2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
3 small sprigs fresh oregano, chopped 
1 tbsp Siúcra rich dark sugar 
8 mint leaves, shredded 
 
For the dressing 
3 tbsp rice wine vinegar
2 tbsp sherry
2 tsp flaxseeds
2cm fresh ginger, grated
½ lemon, zest only 
100ml rapeseed or sunflower oil 
2 tsp Siúcra light golden sugar 
Salt and freshly ground black pepper 
 
For the salad

1 cantaloupe melon, peeled and diced 
200g strawberries, hulled and sliced in half
 
80g feta cheese, to crumble on top 
 
Bay leaves, for threading

Instructions

Combine all the ingredients in a bowl for the marinade, add the lamb, cover and leave in the fridge for at least 2 hours. 
 
To make the dressing
Combine all the ingredients together and whisk well. Check the seasoning and add salt and freshly ground black pepper if needed. Set aside. 
 
To prepare the skewers
Thread the lamb strips and bay leaves alternatively onto the skewers. Place on a clean plate and pat with kitchen paper to dry off some of the excess marinade. 
Heat a large frying pan or chargrill pan. Drizzle the skewers with oil and cook the lamb to your preference.
