Ingredients:
Marinade- 60ml (1/4 cup) olive oil

- zest of 1 lemon
- 2 cloves garlic, bruised
- 5ml (1 teaspoon) dried oregano
- 10ml (2 teaspoons) ground coriander
- 7.5ml (1 1/2 teaspoons) smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon dried red chilli flakes
- 5ml (1 teaspoon) sea salt flakes
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 sprigs rosemary
- 3 bay leaves
- 8-10 lamb chops
- olive oil, for grilling
- lemon cheeks, to serve

- 250ml (1 cup) Double cream plain yoghurt
- 15ml (1 tablespoon) lemon juice
- a handful of fresh mint, flat-leaf parsley and dill, roughly chopped

METHOD:
For the marinade:
place all the ingredients in a small bowl and mix to combine. Rub the marinade over the lamb chops and put it in a shallow dish. Cover and chill overnight. Bring the meat to room temperature before cooking Sous Vide.
Place the lamb chops in a Stasher Bag or zip lock bag. Extract as much air as possible, then press the seal closed.
Place the steam rack on the base of the Instant Pot Duo Plus inner pot and fill with warmish tap water, up to the 2/3 PC MAX line. Place the lid on and secure to close.
Select the Sous Vide Function. Using the +/- keys, set the temperature to 60º C (140F). Press the Sous Vide Function again and set the cooking time to 2 hours. The “ON” display indicates the water is heating. Once the cooker beeps, the water is at the correct temperature.
Open the lid and place the Stasher Bag in the water, ensuring the seal is just above the water level. Place the lid on and turn to close. Once the cooking time is up, open carefully and remove the Stasher Bag.
Allow to cool in the bag for 10 minutes before removing the lamb chops, reserving the marinating juices for later.
Pat the meat dry with a kitchen towel and season lightly with salt.
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a wide-based pan until hot. Brown the lamb chops over high heat on both sides until golden. Deglaze with the reserved marinade and reduce until sticky.
Serve with herb yoghurt and lemon cheeks.
