Step by Step Method
Step 1
Cook barley in a small saucepan of simmering water over a medium heat for 20 to 25 minutes or until almost tender and then add peas and broad beans and cook for a further 3 to 4 minutes or until just tender and then drain and then rinse under cold water until cook and drain and set aside.
Step 2
Meanwhile, heat a small non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat.
Step 3
Spray lamb with cooking spray and add to the pan and reduce heat to medium and cook for 4 minutes, turning occasionally, or until just cooked.

Rest for 5 minutes and then thinly diagonally slice.
Step 5
To make the dressing, whisk all the ingredients together in a small bowl.
