- Divide mixture in 1/2 and place between cellophane.
- Shape with fingers and spread to the same length and width of the lamb loin.
- Roll the tenderloin in the mushroom powder (this will provide a visual break between the loin and the tenderloin in the completed dish as well as enhance the flavor.)
- Position each loin halfway on top of each of the ground lamb mix and place the tenderloin on top of the loin.
- Lift the cellophane and contour the meat around the tenderloin and press against the loin.
