Namibian Lamb Lollies With Garlic Cream Cheese Dip Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk the pomegranate juice and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Add the sugar, honey and mustard and whisk to combine. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer until thickened to the consistency of barbecue sauce, 6 to 8 minutes. Season to taste. Let cool for 30 minutes. The glaze can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
• Place the lamb chops in a large zipper-top bag. Pour half of the glaze into the bag and let the lamb marinate at room temperature for 1 hour. Reserve the remaining glaze to coat the lamb chops on the grill.
• Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and liberally oil the grates.
• Take the chops out of the bag and place them on a paper towel-lined tray or plate to wipe off any excess marinade to ensure a nice crust. Season the chops with salt and pepper on both sides. Place the chops on the grill until charred in spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip, baste liberally with the glaze and grill for another 3 or 4 minutes or until the internal temperature hits 135 degrees F on a meat thermometer.
• Baste the chops with the glaze again, then remove them from the grill. Coat one side in the chopped pistachios for an added crunch. Serve with a nice schmear of the feta tzatziki and garnish with some fresh mint.
• Grate the cucumber on the large holes of a box grater and place in a fine-mesh strainer or piece of cheesecloth fitted over a bowl. Salt the cucumber and let sit for 10 minutes. Then squeeze out any excess moisture. Put the strained cucumber into a bowl. Add the yogurt, feta, lemon juice, mint, honey and garlic. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Trim the silver skin off lamb racks and cut into individual chops. Rub lamb with Smoked Salt, Herb Butter and black pepper. Then toss the racks with olive oil, garlic and rosemary.
• Turn on grill or start fire making sure grill is hot before placing lamb on grill. Rub the grill with a towel coated with olive oil. Place lamb lollipops on grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or desired doneness.

Steps:

• Place the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, scallions, parsley, dill, salt, and pepper in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and blend. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Combine the wine, garlic and rosemary in a small saucepot and bring to a bare simmer. Remove from the heat, add the balsamic and olive oil, and let cool to room temperature.
• Place the lamb chops in a large resealable plastic bag and cover with the cooled marinade. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
• Remove the chops from the marinade and pour the marinade into a small saucepan along with the honey. Bring the mixture to a brisk simmer and reduce until slightly syrupy, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pat the lamb chops dry and sprinkle all over with salt and pepper. Heat a large grill pan over medium-high until very hot. Lightly brush with oil.
• Grill the chops, turning once, for 3 to 3 1/2 minutes per side for medium.
• Serve the chops garnished with rosemary sprigs and drizzled lightly with the reduced marinade.

Steps:

• Place the lamb chops on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil on both sides, and sprinkle both sides with the sea salt, pepper and herbes de Provence. Let sit at room temp for 5 minutes.
• Heat a grill pan over high heat until almost smoking. Add the chops, in batches if necessary, and sear for about 4 minutes. Flip, and cook for another 3 minutes for medium-rare and 5 minutes for medium. Transfer the chops to a serving platter. Drizzle with the agave and sprinkle with the mint.

Steps:

• Open packages of cream cheese and place in large mixing bowl.
• Let soften at room temperature for several hours.
• Crush garlic and add to blocks of softened cream cheese.
• With electric mixer, slowly add milk or half& half thinning mixture and mixing all ingredients together until a desired dipping consistency is reached.
• (It may be necessary to add additional milk etc to achieve this).
• Stir in chives, if desired.
• Refrigerate covered.
• Let dip sit out about 5 minutes before serving.
• *Not to worry, if you get it a little too thin, just add another package of cream cheese.

Steps:

• For the dip base, mix 100g light soft cheese with 50g fat-free bio-yogurt.
• For garlic & herb, stir in crushed garlic clove, snipped chives, a little lemon juice and fresh ground pepper.
• For the fish dip, take the chopped smoked salmon and a few sprigs of chopped dill and stir in the base dip.
• For spice-lovers, stir a little chilli dipping sauce, to taste, through the base mix.
• Go Greek and stir through grated cucumber, and a handful of chopped mint.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together garlic, ginger, soy sauce, 1/4 cup oil, and pepper. Place lamb chops in a large shallow baking dish and pour over garlic mixture. Cover and let marinate, refrigerated, overnight.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Oil a large rimmed baking sheet; set aside. Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add potatoes and cook until just tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and transfer to prepared baking dish. Add rosemary and drizzle with remaining olive oil.
• Transfer to oven and roast 15 to 20 minutes. Turn potatoes by shaking sheet and continue roasting, 15 to 20 minutes more, until golden brown.
• Meanwhile, preheat grill or a grill pan over medium high heat. Remove lamb chops from marinade, wiping off any excess and place on grill. Season with salt and pepper, and grill, rotating lamb chops 1/2 turn after 1 minute, and continue grilling until cross-hatch marks form, about 1 minute more. Turn lamb chops and repeat process on opposite side. Transfer chops to a warm plate and let stand 3 to 5 minutes before serving with dipping sauce.
