Greek Lamb Marinade
Posted by Unknown on Saturday, April 3, 2010This is absolutely the best lamb marinade ever! I love making this for grilled lamb kebabs and its even good for marinating lamb chops before grilling them on the bbq.
Ingredients:
- 3 tbsp plain greek yoghurt
- 1 large brown onion
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp ground coriander seed
- 1/2 tsp fresh thyme
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
You will need to juice the onion, I peel and coarsely chop the onion and run it through a vegetable/fruit juicer but you can also process the onion into a pulp using a food processer and then strain the pulp through a sieve or some cheese cloth to separate the juice. There will be tears, a lot of them! Your eyes will burn and you'll cry like a baby, but it'll be worth it!
Combine the onion juice and the other ingredients in a large bowl and and mix thoroughly. Add the lamb (diced lamb for kebabs, chops or whatever cut you want to grill). Cover and marinate in the fridge for min. 2hrs. Grill and enjoy!
