Marinade

Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the plain yogurt, minced garlic, ginger paste, ground cumin, ground coriander, red chili powder, garam masala, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a smooth marinade.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Lamb Chops

    Add the lamb chops to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for better flavor.

Cooking the Lamb Chops

  1. 3

    Preheat the Tandoor or Grill

    If using a tandoor, preheat it according to the manufacturer's instructions. If using a grill, preheat it to medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Lamb Chops

    Remove the lamb chops from the marinade and shake off excess. Place them on the tandoor skewers or directly on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

Salad Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the diced cucumber, diced tomatoes, thinly sliced red onion, and chopped cilantro.

  2. 6

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the olive oil and lemon juice over the salad mixture. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss gently to combine.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve the Dish
