TIKKA MASALA LAMB LOIN CHOPS

8 lamb loin chops, fat trimmed
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 brown onion, thinly sliced into wedges
½ cup tikka masala curry paste
4cm piece ginger, finely grated
2 garlic cloves, crushed
400ml can light coconut cream
1 tsp brown sugar
250g baby tomatoes, halved
80g baby spinach, chopped
1 ½ tbsp slivered almonds, toasted
⅓ cup coriander sprigs

To serve
Steamed green beans
Basmati rice
Naan bread or roti

Lightly spray char-grill pan with oil and heat over medium-high heat. Cook chops for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your liking. Set aside on a plate covered with foil to rest.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Cook onion for 3 to 4 minutes or until softened. Add curry paste, ginger and garlic and cook for 1 minute or until fragrant. Stir in coconut cream, sugar and ½ cup (125ml) water.
Bring to the boil and then reduce heat to low. Add tomatoes and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until softened. Stir through spinach.
Place chops onto plate, spoon over curry sauce and sprinkle with almonds and coriander sprigs. Serve with beans, basmati rice and naan or roti bread, if desired.
