Grilled Chermoula Lamb Loin Chops

Chermoula or charmoula is a marinade and relish used in the Maghreb countries cooking. It is traditionally used to flavor fish or lamb, but it can be used on other meats, seafood or vegetables.

INGREDIENTS:
Chermoula Sauce

  • 300g (3 cups) fresh coriander/cilantro
  • 100g (1 cup) flat leaf parsley, leaves only
  • 8 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 5g (1 tbsp) dried cumin
  • 5g (1 tbsp) sweet paprika
  • 60ml (4 tbsp) extra virgin olive oil
  • 2g (1 tsp) salt
  • 1 whole (or 10 slices) preserved lemon

Meat
  • 8 lamb loin chops

SERVES:

  • 4

COOKS IN:

  • Prep: 10 min
  • Cooking: 10 min

DIFFICULTY:

  • MEDIUM

Method:

- Place all the ingredients in your K-Mojo DigiMaster’s with the Chopping Blade attachment on.

- Give the ingredients a blitz. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash of water to loosen it up.

- Empty the sauce into a large mixing bowl and toss the lamb chops in the chermoula marinade, ensuring to cover all surfaces.

- Marinate at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight.

- Place the lamb chops on a hot barbecue or griddle pan.

- Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium rare. Alternatively, cook to desired doneness. (This depends on the thickness of the actual chops as well.)

- Once cooked, serve or top with more sauce. Enjoy!

 

TIP: Serve with wild rice or new potatoes, plus asparagus or your favourite greens.
