Ingredients
- 1 kg lamb ribs
- 280 g plain Greek-style yoghurt
- 2 tsp salt
- ½ tsp turmeric powder
- 6 green cardamom pods, bruised
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tsp cumin seeds
- 2 tsp cloves
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- ½ tsp garam masala
- 4 fresh bay leaves
- 1 litre chicken stock
- coriander sprigs and lemon wedges, to serve
This recipe needs to be started one day in advance.
Instructions
- Cut the ribs into 2 ribs each. Combine the yoghurt and all the spices in a large bowl, add the ribs and toss to coat well. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Place the ribs and marinade in a large ovenproof saucepan. Add the bay leaves and stock, cover and bake for 2½ hours or until the ribs are tender and almost falling off the bone. Remove the ribs and set aside to dry slightly.
- Preheat a char grill pan or a large frying pan over high heat. Cook the ribs, in batches, for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden and crisp. Scatter with coriander sprigs and serve with lemon wedges.
