Lamb culotte on the grill
Denne opskrift på lammeculotte på grill giver det møreste og lækreste kød. Culotte er en udskæring, der er nemt at grille, og den har en virkelig dejlig mild smag af lam.
I opskriften marineres kødet i en blanding af yoghurt, olivenolie, hvidløg, rosmarin og honning. Det gør kødet mørt og fantastisk smagfuldt, og får kødets overflade til at blive let karamelliseret og sprød efter en tur på grillen.
Personligt foretrækker jeg en let rosa, “medium well” stegt culotte. Hvis du ønsker en mere rød steg, kan du finde tips hertil under opskriften.

Kød til 2-4 personer
Forberedelse 10 min + 2 timers marinering /I alt 2 timer 40 min
INGREDIENSER
- 1 lammeculotte (400-500 g)
Marinade
- 1 håndfuld rosmarin
- 3 fed hvidløg
- 2 spsk. yoghurt
- 2 spsk. olivenolie
- 2 tsk. honning
- salt og friskkværnet peber
Marinade
Hak rosmarin fint. Pil og pres hvidløg. Rør det sammen med yoghurt, olivenolie, honning, salt og peber i en skål.
Puds culotten for sener, og skær riller i fedtsiden. Vend culotten i marinaden i skålen. Dæk skålen til, og sæt den i køleskabet i mindst 2 timer. Lad den dog gerne marinere 8 timer eller endda natten over i køleskabet.
Tilberedning
Steg lammeculotten på grillen 10 minutter på hver side, eller indtil kernetemperaturen er over 60 grader (se tips til kernetemperatur under opskriften).
Dæk kølet med sølvfolie, et viskestykke eller lignende, og lad det trække i 10 minutter. Skær culottestegen ud, og servér.

Marinade for lamb
Rosemary and garlic are great for lamb in general, and this also applies to lamb culottes. We use it in this marinade along with olive oil, yogurt and honey. The yogurt is added because it helps to make the meat extra tender. While the honey makes the marinade caramelize easily on the grill.
