Ingredients

520g diced lamb shoulder
180g jar Cooks' Ingredients Madras Paste
30g Cooks' Ingredients Turmeric
1 tbsp ghee or vegetable oil
2 onions, sliced
4 essential Waitrose Red Peppers, deseeded and cut into chunks
400ml coconut milk
½ lamb stock cube
1 tsp Cooks' Ingredients Amchoor
28g coriander, roughly chopped
2 250g packs Tilda Pilau Basmati Rice

Method

In a bowl mix the lamb with 3 tbsp of the curry paste. Cover and leave to marinate for 30 minutes, or in the fridge for up to 3 hours. Peel and finely grate the turmeric.
Heat the ghee or oil in a wide flameproof casserole or large saucepan and fry the lamb in batches until lightly browned. Transfer to a plate. Add the onions and peppers to the pan, and fry gently for 10 minutes to soften.
Return the lamb to the pan with the coconut milk, remaining curry paste and turmeric. Crumble in the stock cube and add 150ml water. Bring to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook on the lowest heat for about 1 hour or until the lamb is very tender and cooked through.
Sprinkle in the amchoor and half the coriander. Cook for a further 15 minutes, uncovered until the juices have thickened slightly. Meanwhile, cook the rice according to the pack instructions. Sprinkle the curry with the remaining coriander and serve with the rice.
