directions

  1. Mix all marinade ingredients together in a medium bowl or zipper seal bag and mix well. Add lamb chops and massage marinade into the lamb. Marinate overnight in the refrigerator.   
  2. To prepare Nam Jim Jaew, spread tomatoes, garlic, chilies and shallots in a single layer in a large dry skillet set over a medium-high heat. Cook, uncovered, stirring and flipping every couple of minutes, until the tomatoes are blistered, the peppers are charred in spots and the shallots are translucent. Remove from heat and stir in chili flakes, stirring until the chili flakes are fragrant.  
  3. Transfer all ingredients to a food processor and pulse a few times. Add soy sauce, tamarind paste, lime juice, sugar and salt and mix well. Transfer to a bowl and add cilantro, cilantro and green onions.  
  4. Remove lamb from marinade and grill over medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until lamb is medium rare. Serve topped warm with warm Nam Jim Jaew and garnish with julienned sweet peppers and micro cilantro.

THE STORY OF SOY SAUCE

Even people who love soy sauce and use it all the time are often surprised to learn what it is and how it’s made. We make ours from just four simple ingredients—water, soybeans, wheat, and salt. Those ingredients are transformed through a traditional brewing process—much like making wine or beer—that has remained unchanged for centuries.
