Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the pearl barley in a pot with 350ml of salted water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat.

Drain if necessary and season to taste.

ZESTY BEANS

FRY & TOSS
Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the lamb cubes and the roast rub, and fry for 5-6 minutes or until crispy, shifting as they colour.
