  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 tablespoon spices, such as cardamom, cumin, anise and peppercorns or 1 tablespoon genuine fresh masala

Recipe

  • 2 at the same time, boil the onions in the vinegar until tender.
  • 3 in the meantime, crush and mix together the spices mentioned, plus the sugar. exact spices or quantities are not that important.
  • 4 the apricots cook quickly. mash or pureé them, add to the boiling onion mixture, then add the spice-sugar mixture.
  • 5 cool mixture to room temperature. do not worry about the extreme sourness of the mixture -- you are not going to eat it!
  • 6 this is enough to marinate 8 - 12 loin chops, depending on size and thickness. i prefer fairly thick chops.
  • 7 use a glass, ceramic or porcelain dish, and ladle some of the mixture into the bottom and spread it all over. if your mixture is very thick, add a little water, but it must be fairly thick and not watery!
  • 8 pack in a layer of chops tightly together. layer over more marinade, and add the rest of the chops. top with the last of the marinade.
  • 9 how you do it, will depend on the size of your container and number of chops. make sure all chops are in contact with the marinade.

  • 11 you can safely marinate them for at least 3 days and up to 7, 8 days in the fridge. they only get better!
  • 12 to use: scrape off the marinade with a spatula, and discard. you don't have to scrape them frantically, just get rid of most of the marinade.
  • 13 it's by far the best to grill them over coals or charcoal. don't overcook! only use salt after grilling.
