How to make the best lamb chops

First, what do you buy…what the heck do you tell your halal meat butcher who is good at only making salan ki botiyan :mad:?

Second, what ingredients would you need?

Do you marinate? Do you grill, bake, fry, what?

I need a step by step recipe. Please.

Hello jee,

Take a look my recipe in the thread below, it was tried by 2 guppies who both gave it their vote of confidence. There are also other recipes in it that sound good.

Tell the butcher u need “chaamp” if he don’t know what chops are!

Tell him to slice them in between each bone, the thickness of his nail.

Best of luck!

Re: How to make the best lamb chops

Thanksssssssssss!!!

My chaamp recipe secret is... use all the masala u like tikka, bar b que, tandoori. Now to any of these recipe add a unriped papaya grated two tblsp per kilo. Marinate overnight ,even for a couple of days if you can. Now grill them bake them barbeque whatever you have planned. Garanteed it wil turn out to be the most succulent, fall off the bone. delicous lamb chops ever:)

Re: How to make the best lamb chops

^ Sumo, have you ever used "meat tenderiser" from a packet? It's extracted from papaya I think, it's very strong and tenderises within 2 hours sometimes. We use it on mutton chops (but not lamb bcos then it will b too soft).

Thanks for mentioning, tenderising certainly makes a difference.

Re: How to make the best lamb chops

You can ask your butcher for them and get them to remove the fat for you.

We usually just put masaleh on them and then leave to marinade. I purchased a cast iron grill to cook meat on and its brilliant. Gives the food a BBQ'ed taste without the hassle of getting the BBQ started and coals heated.

The boys in my family love them.

i have tried this very simple recipe, and i tell you its absolutly delicous.

put some olive oil in a frying pan, place your lamb chops sprinke some salt and pepper, cover pan and on a very very low heat let it cook, turn over once (takes about an hour)

as lamb has its own unique taste, this recipe really brings out that taste, so simple but so nice

( imade it by accident once, put it on low heat and forgot, went back once i remembered and it was like BINGO:e6:

i was once told by a chef that meat tenderisers and achino moto are the 2 ingredients that you will never find in a professional chefs kitchen.

cant remember the actual facts as to why, but do remember him saying that "if those chemicals can make meat soft in few hours, imagine what they can do to your insides"

sorry i cant remember, but he did mention some natural foods that can assit in meat tenderising

Re: How to make the best lamb chops

^ Professional professional chef, probably not, BUT restaurants in pakistan, definitely YES! (Not that I am advocating that they are good for you).

I thought the tenderizer thing is an enzyme, and enzymes stop working after too much heat is applied to them (I think, may be wrong). So generally if tenderizer agent is cooked, the enzyme will become de-activated, therefore have no effect.

I could be wrong.
