To make the marinade: Combine all the ingredients and season with black pepper. Place the lamb in a bowl and pour over the marinade. Set aside for 20 minutes if you have time.

To make the dressing: Combine all the ingredients, except the chilli, in a mini blender. Wiz until smooth. Remove to a small bowl and then add the chilli.

To cook the lamb: Take the lamb from the marinade and season with salt. Heat a grill pan or barbecue and cook the lamb for 3-4 minutes on each side, depending on how thick the lamb chops or steaks are.

To serve: Allow the lamb to rest for a couple of minutes before serving with the potatoes and roasted vegetable. Spoon a little of the dressing over each portion of lamb.
