It couldn't get any quicker, easier, fresher or tastier than this herb and lemon marinade. Why pay for store bought when you can make your own?

I love how quickly you can throw a marinade or dressing together in the Thermomix. Even better if the herbs come fresh from your own garden. I don't normally tend to measure the herbs. Use what you have and rely on your own good judgement for how this will taste. It has to to taste amazing if you are making it right?

You can add some whey to this recipe, this will help tenderise the lamb, you can use it on chops, cutlets or an entire leg of lamb, or for that matter beef or chicken.

Try it as a salad dressing as well...it is delicious.
