Moroccan Chilli Marinade
This is a fabulous marinade that can be used with Chicken, lamb, vegetables as a mixed grill or even tofu; it really is quite versatile and yummy!
I’ve recently used it with a Sea bass and cooked it in a banana leaf pouch or tin foil pouch, which ever is most convenient. The fish remains very tender as the marinade protects it from drying out whilst cooking.
The marinade can be made days ahead and refrigerated or make a greater quantity and use as a pesto sauce to add to ingredients of your choice.
Ingredients:
6 tbsp good olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tsp ground roasted cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
¼ tsp cinnamon powder
¼ tsp turmeric
1 chilli finely chopped
2 cloves of garlic very finely chopped
2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
Sea salt to taste
Instructions:
Place all the ingredients in a clean sterilized jam jar. Place the lid on and shake very well. Leave for at least 2 hours to allow the flavours to release and infuse in the oil.
Use with chicken, lamb or vegetables as a marinade or as a cooking sauce and cook on a low heat.
