Instructions:
1. Clean the Lamb Chops:
Rinse the lamb chops and pat them dry.

In a bowl, mix curd, oil, chili powders, turmeric, garam masala, cumin, coriander, and kasuri methi.
Add the marinated lamb chops and coat them well.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best flavor.
4. Grill/Bake/Cook:
Preheat oven to 200°C (390°F). Place the chops on a wire rack with a tray underneath.
Grill for 20–25 minutes, turning once halfway, until nicely charred and cooked through.
Or pan-sear in a hot skillet or grill pan for 4–5 minutes on each side and finish in the oven if needed.
