Recipe: Lekker Rooibos Lamb Chops

Get ready to sizzle with our Lekker Rooibos Lamb Chops! The nectarines and rooibos come together for a flavour combo that's as uniquely South African as it gets. Juicy, flavourful and smoky - this recipe is a must-try for any braai lover!

Ingredients

• 250g Dried Nectarines
• 1 cup Water
• 3 tbsp Sugar
• 4 Rooibos Teabags
• Juice and rind of a Lemon
• 12 Lamb Rib Loin Chops
• Salt and milled Black Pepper, to taste

Method

Nectarine rooibos syrup

1. Place the dried nectarines in a small saucepan.
2. Add 1 cup of water, 3 tablespoons of sugar and 4 rooibos teabags.
3. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
4. Cover and simmer for 5 - 8 minutes until the fruit is plump.
5. Uncover and simmer briskly until the syrup reduces and thickens slightly.
6. Discard the teabags and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
7. Stir in the juice and rind of 1 lemon.

Lamb chops

1. Trim excess fat and any grizzly bits from the lamb chops.
2. Season the chops with salt and milled black pepper.
3. Braai the lamb chops, turning often, until done to your liking (about 5 - 6 minutes depending on thickness, they should still be pink inside).
4. Remove the lamb chops and let them rest for a few minutes.
5. Drizzle the rooibos nectarine sauce over the lamb chops.
6. Serve immediately, with extra sauce on the side if desired.
