This is a recipe for Moroccan mint chutney that is used along with this wonderful Moroccan BBQ sauce recipe. We used these recipes with grilled lamb shoulder steaks.

Please read my "cooks tips" following the recipe.


Mint chutney

1 cup lightly packed rinsed fresh mint leaves - dried well
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup chopped green onions - white and pale green parts
3 tablespoons parsley leaves - not chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 peeled clove garlic

1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne

Mix together in a blender for food processor until smooth. Makes about 1 cup.

Use a small amount (1/4 or so cups) to marinate lamb at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours before cooking. Discard any used chutney. Serve remaining chutney and Moroccan BBQ sauce alongside.

Cooks tips: This recipe calls for 1 teaspoon salt, which we found way too salty. We suggest you start with 1/2 teaspoon. Also, you may want to start with 1/8 teaspoon of cayenne as we found 1/4 teaspoon a bit hotter than we'd like. Make this recipe a few days ahead of time in order for the flavors to develop.

This recipe for mint chutney and the accompanying Moroccan BBQ sauce is from homemade-recipes.blogspot.com.

Cooking tips and techniques
These are a few cooking tips that we've discovered as we've prepared our different green bean recipes. Some you may know, and a few you may not know. We hope they're helpful to you. Garlic There is nothing as bitter as burned garlic. It can literally ruin a dish. When a recipe calls for cooking garlic in olive oil do so over a very low heat and carefully watch the dish.

Greek Potatoes and Green Beans
Another winning recipe from www.all-creatures.org. Keeping in the Greek tradition the green beans are cooked with tomatoe and potatoes. According to my Greek friend Karen this is the way her mother would present this dish, but she says that she would consider adding some garlic and oregano to jazz it up a bit.

A guide to canning fresh green beans
France is the birthplace of modern canning. During the Revolutionary War the government of France needed a way to make food available for it's troops out in the field. They offered a money reward to the first person who could come up with a way to do this. In 1809 a French confectioner developed a vacuum sealing method using glass jars. Thus canning was born.
