They have a tradition of eating haggis in January as part of the Burns Supper to commemorate the poet Robert Burns &#8211; a tradition that originated from Scotland. Oh my, that smell! I will never allow that in my kitchen! I couldn&#8217;t stomach it at all, and had to leave that untouched during the dinner event at Durham.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A bone-in lamb is supposed to be better, since it comprises the better cuts of the meat. I mean, I can&#8217;t possibly stop the other two guys from eating this at home; if they so love it, they can and should go ahead. The guy has been talking about making lamb chop at home for quite a while, so I recommended this recipe for him to try out. Honestly, I&#8217;m not sure how it tastes, but looking at the colours, they look good enough &#8211; well-browned and grilled with some charred sides.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Ingredients:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Walnut: 65g, toasted<\/li>\n<li>Fresh mint leaf: 25g<\/li>\n<li>Olive oil: 1\/2 cup<\/li>\n<li>Apple cider vinegar: 5 tbsp<\/li>\n<li>Honey: 1 tbsp<\/li>\n<li>Lamb chop: 4, bone-in<\/li>\n<li>Salt: to taste<\/li>\n<li>Ground blackpepper: to taste<\/li>\n<li>Oil: 2 tbsp<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em><strong>Method<\/strong><\/em>:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Blend together walnut, mint leaves, olive oil, apple cider vinegar and honey to form a smooth paste.
