Sweet Curried Lamb Chops

Sandra Williamson's Note:

A sweet curry that even the kids love with a rich fruity sauce, best with rice or mashed potatoes to soak the sauce up.

• Total Time: 2 hrs 22 mins
• Prep Time: 20 mins
• Cook Time: 2 hrs 2 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 6 -8 lamb chops
• 2 ounces butter
• 2 onions , peeled & sliced
• ½ cup tomato sauce
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 4 teaspoons brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons curry powder
• 2 tablespoons fruit chutney
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
• 4 tablespoons white vinegar
• 1 ½ cups water
• 2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Directions:

1. Melt butter in pan, add chops, brown well on both sides (I always well cook the chops at this stage).
2. Arrange browned/cooked chops in a single layer in an oven-proof dish.
3. Add onions to remaining pan drippings, cook 1-2 minutes, remove from pan, and put on top of chops.
4. Place flour, sugar, curry, mustard and ginger in saucepan, mix well.
5. Add vinegar, blend until smooth.
6. Add water, tomato sauce and chutney, stir constantly over heat until mixture boils and thickens.
7. Pour thickened sauce over the chops and onions, cover.
8. Bake in moderate oven for 1.5-2 hours or until chops are tender.
9. Stir in chopped parsley (To save time you can microwave the whole lot at this stage until the chops are tender, also cooking the chops well at the beginning will also save time).

This was absolutely delicious- such lovely winter comfort food! The house was filled with the fantastic smell, and more importantly it was quick and easy!! Will be on the menu again that's for sure!

Made this last night. I used lamb cutlets which I removed all the fat. Cooked exactly as stated in the recipe, and it was sooooo delicious. Served alonside roast vegetables and brown rice. Very good and one I will make regularly.

Lovely flavour and very easy to make. The sauce is very tasty and Dave and the girls really loved it. Next time I would use Lamb Shanks. Thanks for posting.
