Prepare the marinade

Place the coconut milk, curry paste, tomato sauce and lime juice, salt and pepper in a large bowl and mix to combine.

Add the lamb and toss in the marinade to coat. Set aside and marinate for 15
minutes.

While the lamb is marinating mix the oil, sugar, and 1 tablespoon lime juice in a large bowl and add the sugar snap peas, blanched beans, onion and basil leaves and toss. Set aside.

Prepare the sauce

In a food processor or blender combine the garlic, fresh coriander, peanut butter, oil, sriracha, ginger, soya sauce, lime juice, water and brown sugar and process until smooth.

Prepare the lamb

Pre-heat a grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill the chops for 4 minutes per side or until charred and just cooked through.

Transfer the chops to a platter. Garnish with fresh coriander, spring onion and chopped roasted peanuts. Serve with warmed peanut sauce on the side. Serve the lamb with rice, the green salad and lime wedges.
