Tandoori lamb chops
I rarely order starters from TAs these days preferring to make my own, which is generally chicken or lamb tikka. However, if tandoori lamb chops are on the menu they are an auto-purchase. Seem quite scarce these days? Had some luck recently though and found two really good local places; one is a rather swish restaurant/TA, the other a proper curry house TA. Anyway, the restaurant does tandoori lamb chops. Here they are, just opened the tray following a home-delivery and sprinkled on some chopped coriander:

Absolutely fantastic! Really great taste. My favorite starter. A bit on the thin side though; there are two in the pic above, one on top of the other. I thought to have a go at making some myself again. Blade's tikka recipe with a 48 hr marinade, and then cooked on the barbeque:

Believe it or not these are not cooked enough. It started raining before the barbeque was ready, so I rushed and managed to set fire to my lamb chops, leaving them somewhat raw in the middle! Not to worry; finished them off in the oven. Besides, I like them well scorched.

Have to say these were easily as good as the restaurants, possibly even better.
Tandoori king prawn suca
The same restaurant does this as a starter. Here it is, tipped into a serving dish. I sprinkled a little coriander again:

This was the first time I have tried this dish. I somehow imagined a bit more in the way of sweet and sour. It did taste of tamarind (tamarina) but was pretty bland. It was also very oily/greasy, which unfortunately ruined everything. Most, therefore, went straight in the bin.

Lovely Rob just lovely.
-
I would be interested in the recipe.
Looks absolutely wonderful.

Looks very interesting indeed Bob I would be love to give it a go.
Lamb chops underdone would have been fin for me by the way. That said, i'm not averse to a little 'scorching' either. ;)
Well done.
-
You've been busy Bob :D. Good to see you've turned Ali's recipe into something with a bit of flavour, given DP's report and your initial results. Definitely worth posting the tikka suca recipe ;)

Looks good to me apart from the chops. Bit of chargroil yep but they look over the top to me. Well somebody had to say it. They may well be good inside but that level of external nuking is not good for both taste or carcinogenic damage ..

Wait until you see my speciality tandoori pork chops. They get the proper, full-on, scorching treatment.
Rob :P

I'll try and put together the suca recipes(s) in the next week or so. I could do with getting back in the kitchen. Been living off ex hot chicken vindaloo for the last 6 nights. It's a bit of a story, but fingers crossed I will be able to watch the chef prepare it for me tonight. Yippee!
Rob :)

Had a proper master-class last night CH. From a bengali chef passionate about cooking. My first visit behind the scenes and I was mesmerized. He showed me how to make the ex-hot chicken vinders I had been ordering, which I learned is a

;D ;D ;D ;D kid in a sweet shop syndrome then? We all know how that feels. So vindaloo is now tindaloo, cos of the extra chilli and that's all, just veg ghee and chilli powder and rough garlic (?) :o :o Only kidding mate ;) Once you have time to reflect on what you saw and stuff starts coming back to you, add to your post for the recipes and methods seen. I bet you're looking forward to next week. So are many of us :) Could be the beginning of a very fruitful and mutally beneficial relationship for all of us ;)

Looking forward to hearing how you get on Bob, especially with the Methi Ghost. Well pleased for you, it's a fantastic experience that I can relate too. I didn't know where to look when I first got invited into a kitchen.
