    METHOD PASTE:
  • 1. Place Cumin, Coriander, Turmeric, Cinnamon and Chili flakes into a saucepan on low heat for a couple mins - this helps to release flavours.
  • 2. Add remaining ingredients and cook for 8-10 minutes on low/medium heat. Allow to cool and blend until smooth.
  • METHOD LAMB:
  • 1. Mix 3 tbsp Tandoori Paste with 1 tbsp Yoghurt. Coat the Lamb Cutlets in the paste and marinade in the fridge for minimum 1 hour but overnight if possible.
  • 2. Grill Lamb cutlets on medium - high heat or on a bbq grill for 2-3 minutes per side depending on how you like them cooked. Just over 2 minutes for a nice medium rare.
  • 3. Allow Lamb to rest for a couple minutes and serve with Herb Yoghurt & Coriander Leaves.
  • METHOD HERB YOGHURT:
  • 1. Mix all ingredients together and put to side ready to use. Can be made in advance but the longer you leave it the herbs will lose their vibrancy.

Notes

TIPS:
1. The same recipe/sauce can be used on chicken or pork. Cooking times will be different
2. Serve this with either some Naan bread or maybe a little rice.
3. The longer you leave the marinade the better, so marinade for overnight to get better flavour.
4. The Tandoori Paste will last up to 2 weeks in the fridge.
