GRILLED LAMB CHOPS WITH CURRY, APPLE AND RAISIN SAUCE
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.

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.

- Add the hot raisin mixture and stir well cooking over medium heat for 2-3 minutes as mixture thickens.

Tips:
- Choose the right raisins. Dark raisins, such as currants or sultanas, have a more intense flavor than golden raisins and will produce a richer sauce.
- Soak the raisins before using. This will help to plump them up and make them more flavorful.
- Use a variety of spices. Common spices used in raisin sauce include cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger. You can also add a splash of red wine or port for extra flavor.
- Cook the sauce slowly. This will help to develop the flavors and prevent the sauce from burning.
- Strain the sauce before serving. This will remove any bits of skin or seeds from the raisins.
Conclusion:
Raisin sauce is a versatile condiment that can be used to add a touch of sweetness and complexity to a variety of dishes. It is especially popular with pork, chicken, and lamb, but it can also be used with vegetables, fruits, and even desserts. With its rich flavor and easy preparation, raisin sauce is a great way to add a touch of elegance to your next meal.
