Allow the marinade to work it’s magic for 1 or more hours for best results?.

Use any excess marinade to brush onto meats as they are being braaied/grilled.

*Notes by Foodeva Marsay*

~ You can marinate the meats and store in the fridge for a day/two before use.

~ You can use regular Ginger and Garlic paste, and also any brands of sauce variety available.

~ for Oven Grilling;

Preheat Oven to grill setting, Spray a large oven tray with non-stick cooking spray, Add the marinated meats and grill turning a few times until done to your liking.
dot meats with Butter/Oil just before finishing off grilling.
you can opt to make a little more of the marinade to use for brushing onto the meats.

It has been for many years now that I have been sharing my recipes, and this particular one I shared ages ago on a Muslim Online Recipe Manager. I’m amazed that I hadn’t even posted it here for the benefit of YOU, my dear readers and followers. So here is my delayed post on my personal blog here.

I am not very impressed with the original Pic I had posted way back when…. but you can find that pic somewhere in this post.

What I love about this recipe, is that it is so adaptable, you could easily put this dish out onto your dinner table as two seperate dishes altogether.

The more saucier version for the chops would be to make it in a pan on stove top, while for a crisper end result grilling in the oven is best. The grilling works best for Lamb Ribs, as I wouldn’t advice those being made in a pan, However I have successfully made other lamb cuts as well by grilling in the oven.

I do hope you give this recipe a try, and as always I look forward to your feedback.

Happy Cooking

**Notes by Foodeva Marsay
✏ normal ginger and garlic paste may be used if the Red variety is not available.
✏Also adjust chillie powder amounts to your liking.
✏ And add more sauce if you want a more saucier end result.

I personally don’t really like lamb, except for a really good lamb roast or these really Crispy and Delicious (Crispylicious) lamb chops, that makes for an awesome fry up breakfast or if you looking for a light lunch/dinner.

With a hectic life that most of us lead these days, this recipe is definitely an easy, hassle-free one to quickly whip up, that the family would most definitely love crunching into?

You Will Need:
500g Lamb Chops
1 teaspoon Ginger and Garlic Paste (I usually use the Ginger/Garlic that has Red Chillies ground in)
1/4 teaspoon Turmeric Powder
1-2 teaspoon Chillie Powder (less or more chillie may be added as per preferrence)
1/2 teaspoon Cumin Powder
1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/2 teaspoon dried mixed herbs

Instructions:

~ marinate the Lamb Chops in these ingredients for an hour or until needed.

Crispylicious “Crumbing”
1 cup All – Purpose Flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground Black Pepper OR Lemon Pepper spice
1/2 teaspoon dried Origanum

~lightly toss all the above ingredients to mix spices well.

Now all that is left to do is :

~heat some oil, shallow to medium amounts, in a pan
~coat lamb chops, one at a time, into the “crumbing” flour. Making sure both sides are well coated.
~carefully place into oil, frying up as many that your pan can take.
~turn a few times until lovely and golden brown, do not over fry as it will toughen and dry out the lamb.
~Remove from oil and place onto absorbent kitchen paper towels to remove excess oil and Serve immediately with a green salad and Potato Chips or any other starch your family may prefer.
~ENJOY!!!
