Notes

  • You can also use lamb loin chops or shoulder chops.
  • My cutlets were 2 - 2 ½ cm/¾ - 1" thick. Thinner cutlets or chops will need less cooking time.
  • The cooking time assumes that your air fryer does not need preheating.
  • How to tell if your lamb is done? The best way is with a meat thermometer. The internal temperature of cooked lamb needs to be at least 60°C (for rare). Medium doneness is between 65°C and 70°C. Remember to insert the tip of the thermometer into the centre of the thickest part of the meat for an accurate reading.
