    I just love this marinade! I have always been fond of Indian spices...and the aroma was enticing. For the 1 tbsp of spices...used cumin and peppercorns...and bbq'd the chops. The result were tender, juicy and lightly flavoured. Thank you, Zurie for sharing yet another wonderful recipe!!

    Steps

    1
    Done

    Boil the Apricots in Water Until Soft. Enough Water Should Be in the Pot to Allow You to Pure the Apricots in a Blender When Soft.

    2
    Done

    at the Same Time, Boil the Onions in the Vinegar Until Tender.

    3
    Done

    in the Meantime, Crush and Mix Together the Spices Mentioned, Plus the Sugar. Exact Spices or Quantities Are not That Important.

    4
    Done

    the Apricots Cook Quickly. Mash or Pure Them, Add to the Boiling Onion Mixture, Then Add the Spice-Sugar Mixture.

    5
    Done

    Cool Mixture to Room Temperature. Do not Worry About the Extreme Sourness of the Mixture -- You Are not Going to Eat It!

    6
    Done

    This Is Enough to Marinate 8 - 12 Loin Chops, Depending on Size and Thickness. I Prefer Fairly Thick Chops.

    7
    Done

    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
    Done

    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
    Done

    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.

    10
    Done

    Cover With Plastic Film and Keep in the Fridge. It's a Good Idea to Turn and Re-Pack Them Once, to Make Sure Every Bit Is Marinated.

    11
    Done

    You Can Safely Marinate Them For at Least 3 Days and Up to 7, 8 Days in the Fridge. They Only Get Better!

    12
    Done

    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
    Done

    It's by Far the Best to Grill Them Over Coals or Charcoal. Don't Overcook! Only Use Salt After Grilling.
