This easy Lamb Curry<\/strong>\u00a0is all about fall-apart tender lamb tucked into a rich, warmly spiced tomato and coconut sauce. Onions and garlic create a savoury-sweet base, garam masala, cumin, cinnamon and chilli bring the warmth, and coconut milk pulls everything together into a silky sauce made for spooning over fluffy basmati rice. The best part? After a little prep at the stove, you can leave the pot to gently bubble away until dinner is ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What You\u2019ll Need for This Easy Lamb Curry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The ingredient list for this lamb curry recipe is refreshingly short. Nothing fancy, just a few well-chosen spices and plenty of flavour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Lean lamb<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Lamb goulash or stewing meat is ideal. Lamb leg also works well. Aim for evenly sized chunks so everything becomes tender at the same time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Onions and garlic<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Three onions may sound generous, but trust me on this one. Cooked until soft and golden, they practically melt into the sauce and give it wonderful depth and sweetness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Italian plum tomatoes<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Whole canned tomatoes add richness and just enough acidity to balance the coconut milk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Garam masala, cumin, chilli and cinnamon<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Our little spice line-up. Warm, fragrant and gently spicy without requiring half the spice cupboard.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Coconut milk<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 This is what takes the sauce from good to\u00a0where\u2019s the naan?<\/em>\u00a0Full-fat coconut milk gives you the creamiest, silkiest result.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Ghee or coconut oil<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Ghee adds a lovely buttery richness; coconut oil is an easy dairy-free alternative.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Rice of choice, for serving<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 Basmati, jasmine or wholegrain basmati all work beautifully. Serve it fluffy and steaming with plenty of that rich curry sauce spooned over the top.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    How to Make Lamb Curry in 3 Simple Steps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    This\u00a0easy lamb curry recipe\u00a0starts with a little chopping and stirring, but after that? The pot does the heavy lifting. Give the lamb time to simmer slowly and you’ll be rewarded with meltingly tender meat and a deeply flavoured sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Start with the flavour base.<\/strong>\u00a0Cook the onions until soft and golden, then add the garlic. In go the tomatoes, which get crushed and cooked down until thick and concentrated. Add the spices and suddenly your kitchen smells very, very good.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Add the lamb and coconut milk.<\/strong>\u00a0Toss the lamb through that gorgeous spiced tomato mixture until every piece is coated. Pour in the coconut milk and enough water to keep the lamb mostly submerged.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Let it simmer.<\/strong>\u00a0Cover the pot and let everything gently bubble away until the lamb is wonderfully tender. Take off the lid towards the end if the sauce needs thickening, then spoon it generously over steamed basmati rice.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
