Punjabi Lamb Chops

Maybe its the caveman in me speaking but I love meat on the bone. The flavour it imparts is unreal. And we’ve all heard the fat equals flavour adage. Team those two mantras up and add some curry spice and I’ve come up with this! You can have this as a starter or a main.. You decide! Ive come up with a multi purpose curry powder that you’ll really love and it will make the base for 100’s of different curries!

 

You will need:

6 Lamb Chops

150g Natural Yoghurt

1/2 tsp Tumeric

1 tsp Garam Masala ( see curry powder recipe below)

1/2 tsp Kashmiri Chilli Powder

1/2 tsp Cumin

1/2 tsp Coriander

1 Inch Grated Ginger

2 Cloves of Garlic

1/2 tsp White Pepper

1 tsp Sea Salt

Juice of 1/2 a lemon

 

 

How to make the curry powder:

 

4 tbs Whole Coriander

1/2 tbs Fennel Seeds

1/2 tsp Cinnamon

1/2 tsp White Pepper

1/2 tsp Turmeric

1 tbs White Mustard Seeds

1 tsp Black Mustard seeds

1 tsp Kashmiri Chilli

 

  1. Place all the spices in a dry pan and toast for 4 minutes. Place in the grinder then pop in an airtight jar.

 

  1. Place the spices, garlic, ginger, lemon juice and yoghurt in a bowl and mix well. Drop in the chops and ensure they are all coated well. Pop back in the fridge and cover for a minimum of 3 hours.
