1. 01

   Prepare Lamb Chops

   Wash the lamb chops thoroughly under cold water, then pat them completely dry with paper towels. Set them aside while you prepare the marinade.
2. 02

   Make the Marinade

   Grind the chillies, madras curry powder, and ginger into a paste. You can use a mortar and pestle or a small food processor for this. Stir in the juice of 1 lemon and 1 tablespoon of oil to form a thick marinade.
3. 03

   Marinate the Chops

   Apply the prepared marinade evenly over all surfaces of the lamb chops, making sure they are well coated. Let the chops marinate for at least 45 minutes, or longer if you have the time, in the refrigerator.
4. 04

   Pan-Fry the Chops

   Heat a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat, then add the remaining oil. Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the marinated lamb chops in the pan. Reduce the flame to low, cover the pan, and cook the chops slowly.

   Finish Cooking

   After some time, turn the chops to cook on the other side. Continue to cook, covered, until they are tender and browned to your liking. The exact time will depend on the thickness of your chops.
