    4. Add the pre-marinated lamb chops to the bowl and mix together well. Marinate for three to four hours before cooking.
    5. To cook, thread a skewer through the lamb chops and grill in a medium hot tandoor or over a barbecue (no need for the skewer) for about four minutes, then turn over and grill for a further three minutes.
    6. Serve hot sprinkled with chaat masala and lemon juice.
