1. Set oven to 200ÂșC.
Place pearl barley in a saucepan with plenty of water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 15 minutes or until tender but still firm.
2. Cut carrots, zucchini and beetroots into bite-sized pieces. Wedge red onion. Toss along with olives, 1 tbsp oil, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp paprika, salt and pepper on a lined oven tray. Roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until tender.
3. Dice lamb steaks and toss with 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp paprika, 1 tbsp oil, salt and pepper. Thread onto skewers (see notes). Heat a pan over medium-high heat and cook lamb for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until cooked to your liking.
4. Mix yoghurt with chopped mint leaves, and chives, 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 tsp cumin. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
