Mutton chops are always a favourite item in my dinning table . I have two different recipes to make them, one is tandoori chops and the other is pepper chops. Today i am sharing tandoori chops recipe. I usually bring Indian mutton chops but since they dont have much meat in them neither they look appealing so this time i bought Australian mutton chops which had a good amount of meat and looked appealing. You can also use beef chops . I got this recipe from food fusion which i really liked.
