Ingredients

1.5 pounds lamb, cubed and trimmed of all fat1 pound cubed cooked or raw potatoes2 tablespoons olive oil1 large onion, chopped finely1 garlic clove, chopped finely1 cup canned chopped tomatoes, whizzed in a blender OR 1 cup tomato passatta1/2 tsp turmeric4 tsps garam masala1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger root1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped finely1 teaspoon salt6 tablespoons fresh chopped cilantrojuice of one lime

Directions

Place lamb in a skillet WITHOUT OIL and cook, over medium heat, until there is no pink showing (you will have to turn it). Drain in a colander to get rid of any rendered fat.

In a large saucepan or dutch oven, put oil, then saute onion and garlic until deep golden or brown. Add tomatoes, turmeric, garam masala, salt, chilis, ginger and half of cilantro and cook until mixture is shiny (about three minutes).

Add lamb and stir fry for five minutes.

Add lime juice and three cups boiling water and potatoes, if raw. Cover and simmer for 40 minutes, until potatoes have completely cooked through and are thickening the sauce and lamb is tender.

If the potatoes are cooked, add them 15 minutes into cooking time.

Sprinkle remaining cilantro over curry and serve over basmati rice, with natural yogurt.
