You Need a Cool-Weather Garden Tool Kit. Here’s What Should Be Inside It.
This easy crowd-pleaser from Oaktown Spice Shop in Oakland, California works equally well for weeknight and weekend meals. The marinating time is flexible, and you can cook the meat on an outdoor grill or a grill pan in the kitchen. You’ll need 10-in. bamboo skewers.
Prepare lamb: Sprinkle lamb with 1 tsp. salt. In a bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, remaining 1 tsp. salt, the curry powder, garlic, and ginger. Add lamb and toss to coat. Chill, covered, at least 4 hours or overnight.
Prepare yogurt sauce: In a bowl, combine yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, and salt. Chill until used (up to 1 day).
About 30 minutes before cooking, soak six 10-in. bamboo skewers in water and let meat stand at room temperature. Heat a grill to medium-high (350° to 450°), or set a grill pan on the stove over medium-high heat.
Remove lamb from marinade (discard marinade) and thread onto skewers. Grill (covered if on an outdoor grill), turning occasionally, 7 to 8 minutes total for medium-rare.
Serve with yogurt sauce, naan bread, cilantro sprigs, and mint leaves.
* If boned lamb shoulder isn’t available, buy 3 lbs. bone-in shoulder chops. Find Madras curry powder at well-stocked grocery stores and at oaktownspiceshop.com.
