Lamb cutlets with zucchini and black quinoa salad

My son, rather expensively, loves a lamb cutlet. I think it has something to do with meat having a ‘handle’. Surprisingly, he’s not as excited by the zucchini and quinoa salad but that suits me fine–he gets the larger share of the cutlets and I get a larger serving of the salad.

Despite what he thinks, this is a delicious salad, which can be enjoyed with any grilled red meat. If serving the salad with beef, then swap the mint for basil.
