This was delicious! It had me wondering at first where it was going with the spices and the french style sauce and the pine nuts but it turned out really great. I love the way the sauce balances out the spices in the potatoes. Instead of making the lamb chops, I roasted a rack of pork with a kashmiri curry spice mix as well I added some dressed jullienned red bell pepper for color and texture contrast.
