Steps:
- Combine the yogurt, olive oil, lemon zest and juice, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a large non-reactive bowl. Add the lamb, making sure it is covered with marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator, covered, overnight or for up to 3 days.
- Bring the lamb to room temperature. Prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals. Scrape the marinade off the lamb, wipe the meat with paper towels, and season it generously with salt and pepper. Brush the grill with oil to keep the lamb from sticking, and grill on both sides until the internal temperature is 120 to 125 degrees for rare. This will take 40 minutes to 1 hour, depending on how hot the grill is.
- Remove the lamb to a cutting board, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 20 minutes. Then slice and serve.

Tips:
- Selecting the Right Lamb: Choose high-quality lamb cuts, such as lamb chops, leg of lamb, or rack of lamb, that have good marbling for added flavor and tenderness.
- Marinating the Lamb: Marinating the lamb enhances its flavor and tenderizes the meat. Use a flavorful marinade made with olive oil, garlic, herbs, spices, and citrus juice. Marinate the lamb for at least 30 minutes, but preferably overnight for maximum flavor absorption.
- Grilling Techniques: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the lamb chops or steaks for 7-10 minutes per side for medium-rare doneness or adjust the cooking time according to your desired doneness. For a more smoky flavor, use a charcoal or wood-fired grill.
- Resting the Lamb: After grilling, let the lamb rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful meat.
- Hummus Mash Preparation: To make the hummus mash, use fresh, creamy hummus and combine it with mashed potatoes. Season the mash with garlic, lemon juice, cumin, and salt to taste. For a smoother texture, use a food processor to blend the hummus and potatoes until well combined.
- Garnish and Serving: Garnish the grilled lamb with fresh herbs like mint or cilantro, and serve it with the hummus mash, grilled vegetables, or a simple salad. Drizzle with a flavorful sauce or glaze, such as a mint-cilantro sauce or a yogurt-based sauce, to enhance the flavors.
Conclusion:
Grilling lamb chops or steaks with hummus mash is a delightful culinary experience that combines the succulent flavors of grilled lamb with the creamy richness of hummus. By following these tips and techniques, you can create a memorable meal that showcases the best of both worlds. Experiment with different marinades and sauces to create unique flavor combinations, and enjoy this delicious dish with your friends and family.
