“My mother, Denise Jute, is an excellent cook, but I could hardly cook when I got married. I used to defrost meat in the morning, then phone her at night and she would give me an easy recipe, such as these chops which I still make twice a month,” says Denrich Evans.

4-6 lamb chops salt and freshly ground black pepper MARINADE

125 ml (½ c) chutney

125 ml (½ c) tomato sauce

125 ml (½ c) Worcestershire sauce SAUCE

250 ml (1 c) beef stock

10 ml (2 t) fresh thyme, chopped 15 ml (1 T) maizena mashed potatoes to serve 1 Season the chops with salt and pepper.

2 Marinade Mix the sauces in a glass bowl. Add the lamb chops and marinate for an hour in the fridge.

3 Reserve the marinade and braai the chops over hot coals until just cooked, turning frequently.
