thumb-sized piece ginger, ½ cut into matchsticks, the rest left whole
2 onions, quartered
4 garlic cloves
2 tbsp rapeseed oil
1 cinnamon stick
1 tbsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground turmeric
½ tsp fennel seeds
750g leg of lamb, diced
400g can chopped tomatoes
1 red chilli or green chilli, deseeded and sliced

Steps:

  • Put ½ the thumb-sized piece of ginger, 2 quartered onions and 4 garlic cloves in a food processor with 300ml water. Blitz to a smooth purée.
  • Scrape down the sides with a spoon and blitz again to make it as smooth as you can. Tip into a deep sauté pan, cover with a lid and simmer for 15 mins.
  • Remove the lid and cook for 5 mins more, stirring occasionally. By now the liquid should be all gone. If not, cook a little longer.

  • Tip in 400g can chopped tomatoes with a can of water and 1 deseeded and sliced red or green chilli, season well, cover and leave to simmer for 1 hr.
  • Stir in the finely chopped stalks from a small bunch coriander, re-cover and cook for a final 30 mins until the lamb is tender. Add a splash of water if necessary to loosen the consistency as it cooks.
  • Stir in the roughly chopped coriander leaves and serve with basmati rice and mango chutney or raita.
