BAKED LAMB / MUTTON CHOPS

BAKED LAMB / MUTTON CHOPS an old Anglo-Indian favourite

Serves 6

Ingredients:

½ Kg good lamb / mutton chops

1 teaspoon ginger and garlic paste

1 teaspoon ground pepper
1 teaspoon chillie powder

Salt to taste

2 tablespoons lime / lemon juice

Beat each lamb chop on either side with a cleaver or kitchen knife. Marinate the chops with all the ingredients for 2 hours. Wrap each chop separately in foil paper and bake in a moderate oven for 10 minutes on either side. Serve each chop separately with roast potatoes and steamed vegetables.

Note: The chops could be cooked in a pan instead of baking them. 2 tablespoons of oil could be added to the marinade and then cooked.
