Manchester's Curry Mile speciality: marinated lamb cutlets cooked over open charcoal. Mughli's focal pit produces the canonical version; ginger-garlic-yoghurt marinade.

Mughli on Wilmslow Road built its reputation around a focal charcoal pit after opening in 1991. The lamb chops, marinated overnight in ginger, garlic, yoghurt and spice and cooked over coals to medium-rare, became the dish the Curry Mile is best known for in the city. Other restaurants on the strip adopted the same template; the BBC's Curry Mile documentary made Mughli the canonical Manchester spot for it.
