Curry Lamb Chops

A few months ago, a dear family friend of ours gave us a package of frozen lamb chops. I had no idea what to do with them, so I kept them in the freezer. Recently, the same friend made curry lamb chops and let my husband try them. My husband loved it and let me know how good they were. After searching online, I found a recipe that was not only simple but also had familiar ingredients. Even better, the recipe consists of potatoes which my family loves. This curry dish took one hour and twenty-five minutes to make. The result was very tender, tasty and delicious lamb chops which my whole family loved and enjoyed. This recipe is definitely a keeper!
