Fantastic South American Recipe

I cooked this for my grandmother's 79th birthday and it was absolutely delicious. Try it.

Edit: If you can't find any Tamarind Syrup, you can leave it (and the cilantro) out.

Quote:
1 cup diced onion
4 tablespoons chopped garlic
2 cups tamarind syrup
2 cups white vinegar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 cups ketchup
5 bay leaves
Salt and pepper
4 double lamb chops

Yucca Mojo:
2 large yucca
Flour, for coating
Vegetable oil, for frying
1 onion, julienne
2 green peppers, julienned
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1 cup olive oil
1 cup white vinegar
1 cup cilantro leaves
Salt and pepper

Parsley Oil, recipe follows
1 avocado, peeled, pitted, and sliced
2 bunches watercress, cleaned

In a saucepan, saute the onions and garlic. Add the tamarind syrup, vinegar, brown sugar, ketchup, and bay leaves. Reduce until it becomes thick syrup, about 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Let cool completely.
Yucca Mojo: Peel yucca and boil in salted water until tender. Drain and cool. Cut in long sticks then lightly flour and fry until crisp.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a hot pan, saute onions, peppers, and garlic in a touch of oil. When soft, add the rest of the oil, vinegar, fried yucca, and cilantro. Season the mixture well with salt and pepper.

Generously dip the lamb chops in barbecue sauce and sear well on all sides in a saute pan. Finish in the oven for 10 minutes.

Serve lamb over yucca mojo drizzled with parsley oil. Garnish with fresh avocado and watercress.

Parsley Oil:
1 bunch parsley
1 cup olive oil
2 limes, juiced
Salt
Hot sauce
Puree parsley leaves, oil, and lime juice. Season mixture with salt and hot sauce.
