Ingredients

750 g diced lamb

1 tablespoon plain flour

1 tablespoon oil

20 g butter

1 large onion, cut into thin wedges

2 cloves garlic, crushed

1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

2 teaspoons ground cardamom

2 teaspoons ground

Cumin

2 teaspoons ground coriander

1½ teaspoons garam masala

2 cups (500 ml) chicken stock

400 g can peeled tomatoes

¾ cup (185 ml) cream

roasted cashews, roughly chopped, to serve

Method

1. Toss the lamb in flour, shaking off any excess.

2. Heat the oil and butter in a large heavy-based frying pan and cook the onion over medium heat for 2 minutes, or until soft. Add the garlic, ginger, cardamom, cumin, coriander and garam masala and cook for a further 1 minute, or until fragrant. Add the lamb in two batches, tossing in the spices to coat and cook for 2–3 minutes, or until golden brown.

3. Add the stock and tomatoes to the frying pan, breaking up the tomatoes with the back of a wooden spoon. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced and thickened and the lamb is cooked through.

4. Stir through the cream, then season to taste with salt and cracked black pepper. Sprinkle with roasted cashews and serve with saffron rice.
