                                Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
 - 1 onion diced
 - 300 g lamb shoulder diced
 - 1 garlic clove crushed
 - 1 tbsp tomato puree
 - 1 tsp ground turmeric
 - 1 tsp ground coriander
 - 1 tsp ground fenugreek
 - 1 tsp ground cumin
 - 300 g spinach leaves
 - 300 ml water
 - Juice from half a lemon
 - Plain yoghurt to serve
 
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 160°. In a casserole pot or pan, brown the onions and lamb together. Add the crushed garlic clove and season.
 - Stir in the tomato paste and spices. Pour in the water and bring to a simmer.
 - Add spinach and leave to wilt. Once all stirred in, add a squeeze of half a lemon and cover with your pan’s lid. Cook in the oven on low for 1 hour or until the lamb is tender.
 - Serve with a dollop of plain yoghurt and some naan bread or chapaati.
 
Notes
- Storage - If you happen to make a double-batch of this curry and want to store some for the next day, I’d recommend storing it in a well-sealed Tupperware container, in the fridge. It’ll keep for 2-3 days.
 - Re-heating - please ensure you reheat any leftovers thoroughly. Use a microwave if possible but ensure whatever way you reheat, that the food is piping hot before eating.
 - Freezing - When freezing, place in a well-sealed Tupperware and always ensure the food is cool before placing in the freezer. This curry will freeze for 2 months. Always defrost thoroughly before re-heating (see above).
 - Servings - My lamb curry will serve 2 with a tiny bit of leftovers.. not enough for another person, so perhaps serve up big or eat the rest for lunch the next day! Or make a double-batch and freeze some.
 - Aga cooking - All my recipes are made using an Aga (this one was actually tested pre-Aga days) but adjusted for conventional ovens. To make this on an Aga, do all the frying on the boiling plate and place in the simmering oven for the hour.
