About

Koreans do not eat a lot of lamb, but I think the flavours of Korea meld well with this meat. These chops go great with Grilled Twist Peppers and Steamed White Rice.

Method

In a large bowl, whisk together the sake, chilli paste, soya bean paste, mirin, soy sauce, sesame oil, chilli flakes and honey until smooth. Add the lamb chops and toss to coat. Cover and marinate in the fridge, tossing once or twice, for at least 4 hours or up to overnight. Before grilling, let the lamb chops come to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
