FAQ

For this recipe, we personally prefer bone-in lamb shoulder, leg or shanks. Bone-in meat imparts the unique flavors of marrow to your curry. However if you prefer using bone-less meat, cut down the spices or optionally use stock or bone-broth/ yakhni.
Preheat a griddle pan to high, then cook the lamb for 3 minutes on each side, or until cooked to medium. Serve the chops in a pile on one end of a chopping board and arrange the bowl of houmous, coleslaw and spicy nuts nicely around them, then sprinkle with the coriander leaves.
Temperature is by far the most critical aspect of cooking lamb chops. Undercooking even tender lamb chops can render them unpleasantly chewy, while overcooking will lead to tough, dried-out meat. Rib chops should be cooked to about 130°F, while loin chops are better at 135°F or even 140°F.
The key is slow cooking the tougher cuts of lamb.. Chewy. You need at least 2 to 2 1/2 hours to get the meat so tender that it is falling off the bone.
Slow cooking in liquid transforms tougher cuts of lamb into fork-tender meat. Neck, shoulder and belly, either diced or as whole joints, are the best cuts for slow cooking and need to be cooked for at least 2 hrs at 150°C to soften the meat.
