Morote-uke

 This is the same basic block as the Uchi-uke, but with the help of your other hand. Perform it with the same movement as the Uchi-uke. At the same time bring your other fist against the elbow of your blocking hand to reinforce the block let your hips generate the power for this block.

The concept of the Morote-uke is that one arm blocks off and the other reinforces the block As with the Uchi-uke a horizontal movement of the front elbow is necessary to completely cover the Chudan area. The supporting arm should press the defensive arm in time before the contact with the attacking arm has taken place so that the defensive arm can benefit from the strength of both.
