- 1 kg boneless lamb, cut into small pieces you can use on the bone if you prefer
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1.5 tsp garlic, finely chopped
- 1.5 tsp ginger, finely chopped
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 150 ml water
- 2 tomatoes, roughly chopped
- 3 green chillies, finely chopped
- 4 tbsp fresh coriander, finely chopped
First, add the oil to the pan and heat, turn the heat low and then add the salt, pepper, garlic and ginger. Stir through. Be careful that the garlic and ginger does not burn.
Secondly, add the lamb, stir through and brown most of the lamb before adding the water. This will take a few minutes. Next, cover the pan with the lid and cook on low heat for 45 minutes. Keep stirring the lamb in the pan at regular intervals, if the lamb is drying out, add splashes of water. You do not want it to stick or burn.
Thirdly add the chopped tomatoes, green chillies, and fresh coriander, stir through and cover the pan with the lid. You will need to cook the lamb for a further 10 minutes or until the lamb is tender.
Finally, serve with fresh chapati's or naan and enjoy!
