While all of the summer veggies were dried up and Tim Burton-esque in my garden, the herbs were actually thriving - especially the mint. There was a ton! I brought a big bag of mint (along with two smaller bags of oregano and lavender) back into the city and was craving lamb chops. I made a tasty, herby marinade for a few little grocery store lamb chops and cooked them on the grill pan and they were incredible! Such great flavor, and an interesting twist on traditional mint jelly with the chops. I also had some leftover purple cauliflower, so I made a puree. Looks a little like play dough, but I think could look very cool under a piece of salmon or something. Maybe with a pesto swirled around. Yum!
