Nasi goreng is Indonesian fried rice which, due to the spice blend used to make it, comes with its own unique taste. The spices also work well with lamb so here I have simply rubbed the spice blend into lamb chops - a popular barbecue cut of meat - and whipped them onto the barbecue to make a super quick tasty dish. Serving with a tropical style salsa is the perfect dinner.
