Spurred on by the recent tandoori chop topics posted by
Unclefrank and
Chewytikka, I dug out my chops from the freezer and got to work.
Unfortunately for me, I managed to defrost the pork chops instead of the lamb, but hey ho! - onwards and upwards!
I was intrigued by Chewy's Aloo Bhorta, so after discovering it was a sort of spicy, mashed potato side dish, I checked out a few recipes and settled on one by
Shanaz Rafiq.
Not owning a tandoor, the chops were fired on the charcoal BBQ before hitting the plate with the Aloo Bhorta, side salad and Naga pickle. Very nice indeed. I never got around to making Unclefrank's suggested nargis kebabs - but I will! - and thanks to Chewy, I've discovered a new and delicious side dish.
