Spicy lamb chops are one of my all-time favourites. If you serve them with a couscous salad, you have a perfect mid-week meal you can prepare in next to no time.

8	Lamb chops (Main)
2 Tbsp	Harissa paste
1 tsp	Ground cumin
1 tsp	Garlic, crushed
2 Tbsp	Flat leaf (Italian) parsley, roughly chopped
2 Tbsp	Fresh coriander, roughly chopped

1 cup	Natural yoghurt
1 ½ Tbsp	Harissa paste
½	Lemons, freshly juiced
1 pinch	Sea salt

Place the harissa, cumin, garlic, and salt and pepper in a small bowl and mix together well.
Rub marinade on to both sides of the lamb chops and set aside for about half an hour.
Cook chops on a hot barbecue grill. Give them about 5-7 minutes each side and keep warm in the oven until ready to serve if necessary.
Sprinkle generously with the chopped herbs, and serve the spiced yoghurt on the side.

Combine all ingredients in a bowl and stir well. Taste, and adjust
