This is a traditional Cape Malay dish from South Africa. These meat dishes are typically served on the weekend.

Ingredients:

800g lamb loin chops
200g button mushrooms, wiped clean
8 small potatoes, peeled

1 tsp salt
2 green chillies, finely chopped
2 tsp crushed garlic
2 tsp fresh ginger, chopped and crushed
2 tsp ground cumin seeds
1 tsp ground coriander seeds

Method:

Combine the lamb, mushrooms, and potatoes in a greased ovenproof dish.

In a bowl, mix together the yoghurt with the salt, chillies, garlic, ginger, cumin seeds, coriander seeds and oil. Pour this mixture over the ingredients in the baking dish.
