How to cook deliciously - Lamb Marinade

1. Stage

In a small glass or non-reactive bowl, whisk together the yogurt and the mayonnaise until thoroughly combined. Add the oil 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking vigorously after each addition to ensure that it is completely emulsified. Whisk in the lemon zest and juice, garlic, mint, oregano, rosemary, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper until well combined.

2. Stage

Place the lamb in a zip-top plastic bag or plastic container with a lid and add ½ cup of marinade per pound. Make sure the lamb is completely covered. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or up to 24 hours. Once the lamb has finished marinating, wipe the excess marinade from the lamb before cooking.

3. Stage

Proceed with lamb cooking instructions according to preferred method. (The cooking method from this rib chop recipe works particularly well with this marinade.)
