Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, ground cumin, paprika, ground cloves, ground green cardamom, fenugreek powder, ground turmeric, lemon juice, minced garlic, minced ginger, and salt. Stir until well mixed.
-
Step 2.
Add the lamb chops to the bowl and massage the marinade into them, ensuring each chop is fully coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate.
-
Step 3.
Preheat the grill or broiler to its highest setting. Place the marinated lamb chops on a baking sheet in a single layer.
-
Step 4.
Grill or broil the chops for 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the time to your preferred doneness. The chops should be browned and slightly charred on the outside.
-
Step 5.
Serve the lamb chops immediately with Mowgli slaw, carrot salad, and fresh rotis.
