Ingredients for Grilled Lamb Loin With Tomato and Cucumber Raita and Israeli Couscous

• 3 sprigs fresh rosemary

• 3 sprigs fresh thyme

• 4 cloves garlic

• 2 1/2 teaspoons plus 2 tablespoons olive oil

• 450g lamb tenderloin

• 180ml Israeli couscous

• 150g heirloom cherry tomatoes, halved

• 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil

• 1 medium vine-ripened tomato, thinly sliced

• 1 teaspoon cumin seeds, toasted 1 minute in a dry skillet

• 40g fat-free Greek yoghurt

• 40g seeded and roughly chopped cucumber

• 1/8 teaspoons confectioners' sugar

• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint

Strip leaves from stems of rosemary and thyme, then chop coarsely. Smash garlic cloves, then chop coarsely. Pulse herbs, garlic and 1/2 teaspoons oil in a food processor until smooth. Place lamb in a 13" x 9" glass baking dish; rub with garlic mixture; cover; refrigerate 1 hour. Remove from fridge and let sit at room temperature 30 minutes before grilling. Cook couscous as directed on package; transfer to a bowl. Toss with 2 teaspoons oil, cherry tomatoes and basil. Season with salt and pepper; set aside. Make raita: Heat oven to 191°C. Toss tomato slices with remaining 2 tablespoons oil and spread on a baking sheet; roast until tomatoes brown in spots, about 30 minutes. Grind cumin seeds to a fine powder in a coffee grinder or spice mill. Puree roasted tomato in a blender with cumin, yoghurt, cucumber and sugar until smooth. Stir in mint. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl and refrigerate until ready to eat. Heat grill to medium-high heat (about 191°C). Grill lamb, about 2 minutes per side for medium. Remove from grill and let rest 10 minutes; cut into 1-inch-thick slices. Divide couscous and lamb among 4 plates. Serve with 1 tablespoon raita per plate.
