Dolma's Lamb Marinade

Found chops on sale - cut them into bite size pieces Had 4 good size ones In a bowl: lemon juice from 1/2 lemon 2 shallots finely chopped Toss the lamb through - now add: cinammon, allspice, roasted geera (toasted cumin seeds ground),a sweet garam masala, 3 cloves garlic chopped fine, cardamom Toss all of this so the spices mix over the meat Now add: few Tbl pommeganite syrup and sprinkle olive oil all over - stir through - cover and fridge for a few hours or overnight

Bring to room temp Cook in a hot pan and let crisp before turning When cooked sprinkle over chopped cilantro I am serving with a fruited bulgar pilaf, mashed calabaza, arugula and feta salad For mezze I made huummus with Naan bread and Bourek - which are spinach cigars

As far as the spices go it is just a 1/2tsp of each or a few shakes
If you like more of something add more
I like to put fresh chilis if I were cooking for myself so I curtail and add for myself at the table some harissa
