Lamb & Spinach Curry

Lamb with Spinach

Another Hari Ghotra inspired dish, this Lamb curry is delicious! 

A little spicy with a deep flavour and well worth the effort. 

INGREDIENTS

350g Diced Lamb

3 cloves of garlic

1" piece of ginger chopped

1 tblsp coriander seeds

½ tsp salt

2-3 tblsps oil

1 large onion sliced

1 tsp turmeric

1 tsp chilli powder

1 red chilli chopped

1 tsp salt

3 tblsps plain yogurt 

100grs baby spinach

METHOD

Grind the Coriander seeds in a spice grinder and place in a pestle and mortar

With the garlic, ginger and salt. 

Work into a paste and add to the diced lamb, mix well and set aside. 

Heat the oil in a large pan and add the onions, cook until we'll browned on a medium to low heat. Remove a tblsp of onion and set aside. 

Add the lamb mixture and cook on high for 2 minutes stirring occasionally. Add the turmeric, chilli, chilli powder and salt, stir and cook for 2 mins. 

Turn the heat down slightly and add a tblsp of yogurt, stir and cook until absorbed into the mixture, repeat until all the yogurt is used. Now add the spinach, cover the pan, turn the heat to its lowest setting and cook for 40 - 50mins stirring from time to time until the lamb is cooked through. Add a little hot water if the sauce becomes to dry or starts to stick. You should end up with a nice creamy sauce. 

Serve with some of the saved onion sprinkled on top. Delicious!!
