RECIPE OF THE WEEK!
Garlicky Grilled Lamb Loin Chops
Ingredient Checklist
- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 2 Tbsp fresh rosemary leaves, finely chopped or 1 Tbsp dried rosemary
- 8 lamb loin chops, room temperature
- 1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
- ½ tsp ground cumin
- 1 bag (120g) baby spinach
- ¼ cup sliced almonds, toasted
Instructions Checklist
- In a large mixing bowl combine the garlic, two tablespoons of olive oil, rosemary, and salt and pepper. Add the lamb chops, toss to coat, cover and leave to marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature.
- Preheat your barbecue or grill pan to high heat. Cook the marinated lamb chops for 3-4 minutes on each side, or to your liking, then transfer to a plate and leave to rest for 5 minutes.
- Make the salad dressing by combining the remaining olive oil, vinegar and cumin, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Place the spinach in a large serving bowl and drizzle over the salad dressing.
- Finish with a sprinkling of sliced almonds and serve with the lamb loin chops.
Top tip: Complete your salad with half a red onion, thinly sliced, half a cucumber, sliced and lemon wedges to squeeze over the top just before devouring.
Holiday Punch
Indulgents
- 2 bottles Champagne or Prosecco, or dry white wine*
- 2 cups ginger ale
- ½ cup Cointreau* (or Triple Sec)
- 2 cups pineapple Juice
- 1 orange, sliced
- 1 lemon, sliced
- Raspberries or cranberries, for garnish
- Mint leaves or rosemary leaves, for garnish
Instructions Checklist
- Chill all liquids. Just before serving, combine the sparkling wine or white wine, ginger ale, Cointreau and pineapple juice in a large punch bowl.
- Top with the orange wheels, lemon wheels, raspberries or cranberries, and herbs as a garnish. Serve immediately. Bubbles dissipate after about 20 minutes, so it’s best served immediately (but still tastes great without bubbles).
Notes: For a non-alcoholic punch, substitute sparkling cider for the sparkling wine and orange juice for the Cointreau.
