GRILLED MOROCCAN LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180ºC/350ºF/gas 4.
• Lay the lamb cutlets on a plate and sprinkle them with sea salt, black pepper, the mint and paprika.
• Finely grate over the lemon zest and squeeze over the juice, then drizzle with oil and massage the flavours into the chops. Leave to marinate for 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, crush the fennel and cumin seeds in a pestle and mortar, then tip onto a baking tray with the almonds. Drizzle with a little oil, season and toss to coat.
• Toast in the preheated oven until lightly golden, then remove and allow to cool.
• For the coleslaw, peel and shred the carrots and celeriac on a mandolin (use the guard!). Remove the core from the cabbage and peel the onion, then slice as finely as you can with a sharp knife. Pick and finely chop the coriander leaves and stalks.
• Place all the veg in a bowl with the yoghurt and coriander stalks, then finely grate in the lime zest and squeeze in the juice. Mix well and season with salt and pepper.
• Scoop the houmous into a nice bowl, spoon the harissa and a lug of oil on top and swirl them half in with a spoon to get a rippled effect.
• Put the cooled spiced nuts into a sandwich bag and smash them up with the bottom of a pan or a rolling pin.
• Preheat a griddle pan to high, then cook the lamb for 3 minutes on each side, or until cooked to medium.
• Serve the chops in a pile on one end of a chopping board and arrange the bowl of houmous, coleslaw and spicy nuts nicely around them, then sprinkle with the coriander leaves. Dip a chop in the houmous, then in the nuts and eat with the coleslaw - delicious!

MOROCCAN GRILLED LAMB CHOPS WITH GARLIC, MINT AND SPICES RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large mixing bowl combine the herbs, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and spices. Add the lamb chops and mix well to coat the meat evenly.
• Cover the bowl and refrigerate the lamb chops. For best results, allow the lamb to marinate for at least 5 to 6 hours, or as long as overnight.
• Remove the lamb chops from the fridge and allow the meat to come to room temperature while you heat your grill. Lightly oil the grill rack or a grilling basket to prevent the meat from sticking.
• When the coals are hot, arrange the meat on the rack or in the grilling basket without crowding. Plan to cook the lamb chops in batches if necessary.
• Cook the lamb chops for 5 to 8 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the cuts of meat. Be careful of flames from fat drippings, which can scorch the meat.
• Serve immediately, or hold the lamb chops warm for a short while by wrapping in aluminum foil and leaving to the side of the grill away from direct heat.

MOROCCAN GRILLED LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Place the garlic, mint, turmeric, coriander, cumin, lemon zest, and 2 1/2 teaspoons salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until finely ground. Add the olive oil and pulse to combine.
• Place the chops in one or two non-metal dishes large enough to hold them in one layer. Spread the garlic and herb mixture evenly on both sides. In a small bowl, whisk together the yogurt, Sriracha, and lemon juice, and spread it evenly on the lamb chops. Cover, refrigerate, and allow to marinate for 6 to 24 hours.
• Prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals and oil the cooking grate. Sprinkle the lamb with salt and grill 5 to 6 inches above the coals, first with the yogurt side up (marinade and all) for 4 to 5 minutes, then turn and grill for 3 to 4 minutes, until medium rare. Transfer to a clean plate, cover the plate tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with the couscous.
• Heat the oil and butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook over medium-low heat for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender but not browned. Add the stock and bring to a boil. Stir in the couscous, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and remove from the heat. Cover the pot tightly and allow the couscous to steam for 10 minutes. Fluff the couscous with a fork and stir in the mint and pine nuts. Taste for seasonings and add about 1 teaspoon salt, depending on the saltiness of the stock, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Serve hot.
