One-Pot Lamb Curry

I love this recipe for three reasons. 1. I love lamb. 2. I love curry. 3. It's so darn tasty!

Ingredients
500g trimmed lamb fillets
1/2 tbs good-quality medium curry powder
1 large onion, thinly sliced
40ml (2 tbs) olive oil
500ml (2 cups) chicken or vegetable stock
425g can crushed tomatoes
2 cinnamon sticks
4 garlic cloves, crushed
6-8 fresh curry leaves
1 1/2 cups orzo or risoni pasta

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Cut lamb fillets into 2cm pieces and place in a medium baking dish. Scatter curry powder and onion on top and drizzle with the oil. Give everything a good stir and bake for 20 minutes.

Remove lamb from the oven. Add stock, tomatoes, cinnamon, garlic and curry leaves and season with salt and pepper. Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes.

Remove from oven, add the orzo and stir to combine. Return to the oven, uncovered, for a further 20 minutes by which time most of the liquid will have been absorbed. Remove the curry leaves and cinnamon sticks before giving a final stir and serve with naan and/or a dollop of yoghurt

Enjoy!
