I like my chops spicy, so I use 2 tbsp of the tandoori powder, mix it in with 2 tbsp yoghurt, squeeze the juice of half a lemon and the grated ginger. Mix together then pour over the lamb and coat both sides thoroughly . Cover and put in the fridge for at least 2 hours. I usually make it up the day before. Then grill or bake and serve with a salad.
