Ingredients
  • 8 pieces of mutton chops
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1 tbsp red chili powder
  • 1 tbsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp garam masala powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil (for grilling or pan-frying)
Instructions
    1. Marinate the Mutton Chops:

      • In a mixing bowl, add yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, lemon juice, turmeric, red chili powder, ground coriander, garam masala, ground cumin, and salt.
      • Mix well to create a thick marinade, then coat the mutton chops thoroughly.
      • Cover and let the chops marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (for best results, marinate overnight).
    2. Prepare for Cooking:

      • Preheat the grill or heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Incorporate a tablespoon of vegetable oil to keep it from sticking.
    3. Cook the Mutton Chops:

      • Place the marinated mutton chops on the grill or skillet.
      • Cook each side for 8-10 minutes or until the chops are tender and cooked through. Check for doneness by cutting into one piece to see that it's no longer pink inside.
    4. Rest and Serve:

      • Remove the chops from heat and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
      • Garnish with fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley, if desired.

Tips

  • Marinating Time: Longer marinating time yields more flavorful and tender mutton chops. Aim for at least 1 hour, but overnight is even better.
  • Cooking Method: For added flavor, cook the mutton chops on a charcoal grill. It will infuse them with a delicious smoky aroma.
  • Temperature Check: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches at least 145°F (63°C) for safe consumption.
