In a bowl mix together the harissa yoghurt ingredients and season with sea salt.
In a bowl combine red onion, cucumber and herbs. Dress with olive oil and lemon juice, season with salt.
To plate up spread the yoghurt on the bottom of a sharing platter and top with the salad. Slice the lamb into 1cm thick pieces and place on top of the salad, garnish with chickpeas and extra herbs.
