Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Mix all the marinade ingredients and pour the mixture over the meat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator overnight.

Remove the lamb from the marinade. Stir in garlic cloves and rosemary leaves.

Season with sea salt and ground black pepper. Grill over mesquite coals until medium-rare (130°F (55°C) on a candy thermometer). Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Pour rice vinegar and sugar into a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and begins to brown. Pour in the white wine and reduce by half. Add the mango puree, chili pepper, ginger, veal stock, and half the mint.

Simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Season with salt and pepper if needed. Add the remaining mint just before serving.

Slice the lamb thinly across the grain. Arrange it fan-shaped on a platter, atop grilled vegetables or mango. Drizzle the mango sauce over the meat. Garnish with crumbled feta cheese and mint sprigs.
