GRILLED LAMB CHOPS WITH CURRY, APPLE AND RAISIN SAUCE



Grilled Lamb Chops with Curry, Apple and Raisin Sauce image

Personally, I have never been a lamb eater. However, this recipe for grilled lamb chops is superb. The lamb is succulent and the sauce is such a flavor combination you will want to make this frequently. This is a recipe for those people who don't even like lamb -- as it made a true convert out of me. It is a great sauce for beef and poultry as well, with a definite East Indian flavor.

Time 1h35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

¼ cup butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 cups chopped onion
1 clove garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons curry powder, or to taste
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons salt, or to taste
2 teaspoons white pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme
½ lemon (including peel), seeded and finely chopped
3 cups apples - peeled, cored, and chopped
1 cup applesauce
⅔ cup dark raisins
⅔ cup golden raisins
1 tablespoon water, if needed
6 (4 ounce) lamb chops
1 teaspoon seasoned salt

Steps:

  • In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter with olive oil, and cook the onions and garlic until the onion is translucent, about 8 minutes. Stir in curry powder, coriander, cumin, salt, white pepper, thyme, lemon, apples, applesauce, dark raisins, and golden raisins until thoroughly combined. Bring the mixture to a boil, turn down the heat to a simmer, cover, and simmer the sauce until it has the consistency of applesauce and the raisins are plump and starting to break apart, about 1 hour. Mix in a tablespoon of water if sauce starts to become too thick.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate. Sprinkle the lamb chops with seasoned salt.
  • Grill on the preheated grate until the chops are well-browned, cooked to your desired color of pink inside, and show grill marks, 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a chop, not touching bone, should read about 145 degrees C (65 degrees C). Serve the lamb chops with the sauce on the side.

PUMPKIN-RICOTTA PANCAKES WITH CHUNKY APPLE-RAISIN SAUCE



Pumpkin-Ricotta Pancakes with Chunky Apple-Raisin Sauce image

As a kid, every now and then my mom would make pancakes for dinner--we called it backwards day, and I loved the idea of it. I prefer pancakes that are moist and light and delicious. The trick is to use ricotta cheese and egg whites to lighten the batter--then you'll get nice fluffy pancakes every time. Serve these with a batch of apple compote with some golden raisin action and you'll be a winner every time.

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

5 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 Granny Smith apples, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice, and tossed with the juice of 1 lemon
1 whole cinnamon stick
2 star anise
1/4 cup packed dark or light brown sugar
3/4 cup apple cider
1 cup maple syrup
1 cup golden raisins
1 cup pumpkin puree (canned is okay!)
1 cup store-bought or homemade ricotta
3/4 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs, separated
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 heaping teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Kosher salt
Unsalted butter, as needed
Powdered sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • For the compote: Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the apples, cinnamon stick, star anise, and brown sugar. Cook until the apples are softened, about 4 minutes, then add the cider. Bring the mixture to a boil and reduce to a simmer (BTB, RTS), then continue cooking until the liquid has reduced by half.
  • Add the maple syrup and raisins. Simmer for another 3 to 4 minutes or until slightly thickened. Remove from the heat and serve spooned over the pancakes, dusted with powdered sugar if desired. Try not to eat too many.
  • For the pancakes: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the pumpkin, ricotta, milk, vanilla, and egg yolks. In a large bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Make a hole in the center of the flour mixture and add the pumpkin mixture and mix gently to combine.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the egg whites with a pinch of salt. Using an electric mixer or whisk, beat the egg whites until they hold stiff peaks and look very fluffy, like snowdrifts.
  • Using a rubber spatula, add a small scoop of the egg whites and mix it into the batter to lighten the mixture. Once combined, scoop a third of the egg whites into the pumpkin batter and fold to gently combine. Repeat this process two more times until all the whites have been added. Do this gently but quickly--the idea is to not squish the air out of the egg whites. This is the secret to keeping the pancakes fluffy!
  • Place a griddle over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, drop a pat or two of butter onto the griddle. Once melted, schmear the butter around and wipe up any excess with a paper towel.
  • Using a medium ice cream scoop or a small ladle, pour the batter onto the buttered griddle to create 3-inch pancakes. Let the pancakes cook until bubbles appear on the surface, burst, and then stay open--this will take about 5 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook the second side until golden brown. Place the cooked pancakes on a sheet tray and place in a warm oven. Re-butter the griddle and repeat until all the batter is gone or everyone is full. Hold the finished pancakes in the warm oven.

What is Apple Raisin Sauce?

Apple raisin sauce is a delicious condiment that is typically used as a topping for meats such as pork, chicken or turkey. It is a combination of diced apples, raisins, and various spices that are cooked down to create a thick, flavorful sauce. Apple raisin sauce is relatively easy to make and can be customized to suit your personal preferences, allowing you to adjust its sweetness and spiciness to your liking.

Ingredients in Apple Raisin Sauce

The key ingredients in apple raisin sauce are apples and raisins. The type of apple used can vary depending on your preference. Tart varieties such as Granny Smith apples are a good choice as they hold their shape well and balance out the sweetness of the raisins. Sweeter apples such as Honeycrisp or Gala can also be used if you prefer a sweeter sauce. Raisins add sweetness and texture to the sauce, and can be substituted with dried cranberries if preferred.

Other ingredients commonly found in apple raisin sauce include:

  • Brown sugar or honey for sweetness
  • Apple cider vinegar or lemon juice to add acidity
  • Cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice for warmth and depth of flavor
  • Salt, pepper, and/or cayenne pepper for a bit of spice
How is Apple Raisin Sauce Made?

Apple raisin sauce is made by sautéing diced apples in a saucepan with a bit of butter or oil until they soften. Raisins and other ingredients such as brown sugar, apple cider vinegar or lemon juice, and spices are added, and the mixture is simmered until the flavors meld together and the sauce thickens. The sauce can be pureed for a smoother texture or left chunky for added texture.

Ways to Use Apple Raisin Sauce

Apple raisin sauce is a versatile condiment that pairs well with a variety of meats including pork, chicken, and turkey. It can also be used as a spread on sandwiches or as a dip for vegetables or crackers. Here are some ways to use apple raisin sauce:

  • As a glaze for baked or grilled meats such as pork chops or chicken breasts
  • As a topping for roasted or grilled meats such as turkey or ham
  • As a spread on sandwiches or wraps with roasted turkey or chicken
  • As a dip for vegetable crudites or crackers
  • As a sauce for roasted vegetables such as sweet potatoes or brussels sprouts

Making apple raisin sauce is a popular way to add flavor and moisture to many dishes. This versatile sauce can be used in savory and sweet dishes alike, making it a must-have recipe in any cook's arsenal. When making apple raisin sauce, there are certain tips that can make the process easier and more successful.

Tip 1: Choose the right apples

When making apple raisin sauce, it's important to choose the right type of apples. You want apples that will hold their shape when cooked and won't turn to mush. Some good options include Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, and Pink Lady apples. These types of apples are firm and slightly tart, which makes them a good complement to the sweetness of raisins.

Tip 2: Use quality raisins

Raisins are a key ingredient in apple raisin sauce, so it's important to use a high-quality product. Look for plump raisins that are not overly dry. Golden raisins are a good option as they are slightly sweeter than regular raisins and will complement the flavor of the apples.

Tip 3: Don't forget the spices

Spices are what make apple raisin sauce so tasty. Traditional spices used in this sauce include cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. These spices add depth and warmth to the sauce, making it the perfect accompaniment to pork or chicken dishes. However, feel free to experiment with other spices such as ginger or cardamom to create a unique flavor profile.

Tip 4: Cook slowly and stir often

Cooking the sauce slowly over low heat is an important step in creating a delicious end result. It's also important to stir the sauce often to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan. This will ensure that the sauce is evenly cooked and will have a smooth consistency.

Tip 5: Adjust the sweetness level to taste

Some apple raisin sauce recipes call for a lot of sugar, which can be overpowering. To avoid this, it's best to start with a smaller amount of sugar and adjust to taste. You can always add more sugar if needed, but it's difficult to remove sugar once it's been added.

Tip 6: Blend for a smoother texture

If you prefer a smoother texture to your apple raisin sauce, a blender or food processor can be used to puree the sauce. This is especially useful if you have children who don't like chunky textures or if you plan to use the sauce as a glaze for meats.

Tip 7: Store properly

Apple raisin sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week, but it's important to store it properly. Make sure that the sauce has cooled completely before transferring it to an airtight container. It's also important to use a clean spoon each time you dip into the sauce to prevent the growth of bacteria.
Conclusion
These tips will help you create a delicious and flavorful apple raisin sauce for a variety of dishes. With the right ingredients and techniques, you can create a sauce that is the perfect complement to pork, chicken, or even ice cream. Be sure to experiment with different spice combinations and sweeteners to create your own unique version of this classic sauce. With a little practice, you'll be able to make apple raisin sauce that's sure to please any palate.
