Recipe of the Day: Lamb and Spinach Curry

My favorite way to use leftover lamb!  (Works with beef as well)


Ingredients:


1 inch chunk ginger, peeled and chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 onions, roughly chopped
2 green chilies (serrano) - less if you want mild
1 tbsp of olive oil
1 tbsp ground cumin
1 tbsp ground coriander
1 tsp turmeric
1.5 pounds of lamb (leg or shoulder)
4 tomatoes, chopped
1 tbsp tomato paste
1 6 oz bag of spinach, roughly chopped


  • Directions:
  1. Put the ginger, garlic and onions in a food processor and whizz to a paste. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan then add the paste, green chilli and 1/2 tsp salt and cook for 3-4 minutes until fragrant. Add all the spices and cook for a couple of minutes. Add the lamb and keep cooking and stirring until browned. Stir in the tomatoes, tomato paste and a cup of water then bring to a simmer. Cover and cook for 1 hour.
  2. Add the spinach then cook for another 15 minutes. Serve with rice or indian breads.
