If you’re firing up your bbq this weekend maybe give these a go! I prefer buying a rack of Lamb and slicing up the chops myself but you can use pre-trimmed lamb chops if that’s all you can get hold of. I’ve served mine here with raita, mango chutney, charred asparagus and tenderstem broccoli - also cooked on the barbecue. 

Marinade:
1 tsp curry powder 
1/2 tsp cumin 
1/2 tsp coriander 
1/2 tsp paprika 
1/2 tsp turmeric 
1 tsp salt 
2 garlic cloves - grated 
1 thumb size piece ginger - skinned and grated 
1 tsp tomato puree
3 tbsp greek yoghurt 

1 rack of lamb (or 6-8 lamb chops)

Raita:
1/2 cucumber grated 
100g greek yoghurt 
1/4 lemon 
Pinch or sea salt 
black pepper 

To serve:
Mango chutney
Bbq veg
Flatbreads

Method:
1. Combine all of the marinade ingredients in a bowl. Coat the lamb all over, cover and leave to marinade for at least an hour or overnight.
2. Fire up the barbecue or you could use an oven grill, cook for a few minutes on each side until they have a lovely golden char (not black!) Rest for five minutes.
3. For the raita grate the cucumber and squeeze out the excess liquid. Stir through the yoghurt, garlic and seasoning.
