LAMB SHANK CURRY

Steps:

• Start by making your spice mix. Add all the spices together into a bowl and stir together to combine. Preheat the oven to 160c/320f.
• Now, brown your onions in a deep cast iron casserole dish, over a medium heat with a little oil.
• Add the garlic and ginger and cook for a couple of minutes.
• Pour in your spice mix and stir.
• Remove the onion mix and place in a bowl to one side.
• Next, add a little more oil to the same pan and sear the lamb shanks until lovely and brown. Once they have browned, add the onion mix back into the pan along with the tinned tomatoes. Using the tomatoes tin, fill it with water and add that to the pot too. Coat the lamb in the sauce and cover. Place in the oven to cook for 2 1/2 hours.
• Now onto the roti breads. Start by weighing out the flour in a bowl. Add the salt and oil. After that, add a little water and mix with your other hand. You want enough water that the dough comes together into a bowl. Once it has come together, place it in the fridge to chill until the lamb is nearly cooked.
• With approximately 15 minutes to go. Melt your butter with a little oil. Take the roti dough out of the fridge. Flour your work surface and split the dough into 3. Take one piece of dough and roll it out nice and thinly using a rolling pin. You want it so you can almost see through it. Now, brush some melted butter over the roti. Fold the bottom half into the centre and brush again. Now fold the top half over the bottom half. Brush the dough with some more butter and fold the sides in one at a time so they overlap. Repeat this with all of the roti (I hope this makes sense, if not there is a video)
• Set a frying pan over a medium/high heat. Take one roti and roll it out again on your floured work surface, making sure its nice and thin. Brush a little oil on the pan and add the roti. It will start to bubble and puff up. Flip the roti and cook the other side. Repeat.
• Remove the lamb from the oven and serve with the roti.

LAMB SHANK MADRAS

Steps:

• Tip the yogurt, cumin, turmeric, 1 tsp sea salt and the lamb shanks into a large mixing bowl, then mix to coat the lamb. Cover and pop in the fridge for a couple of hrs, or overnight if you have time.
• Heat the oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 4. Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish over a medium heat, add the shanks and brown all over for 10 mins, then remove from the dish. Scatter the onions into the dish and fry for 10 mins until golden brown. Stir in the curry powder, garlic and ginger and cook for 3 mins until aromatic. Add the lamb shanks back to the dish along with the tomatoes, chillies, curry leaves, cardamom pods and lime pickle. Give everything a good stir and pour over the stock. Bring up to a simmer, cover, then transfer to the oven and cook for 3 hrs.
• Remove the lid and cook for 1 hr more - this will help reduce some of the liquid and char any exposed meat. When the lamb is very tender, leave to rest for 30 mins or leave to cool completely and reheat the next day for the best flavour. Can be made up to two days in advance. Scatter with chopped mint and serve with naan bread and rice on the side.

WEST INDIAN LAMB CURRY

Steps:

• Pat lamb dry with paper towels and place in a large bowl. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon curry powder, the salt, the ground ginger and the black pepper. Add spice mix to large bowl and toss with lamb.
• Combine onion, scallion, garlic, fresh ginger, allspice, thyme leaves and 2 tablespoons oil in a blender; purée until smooth. Scrape mixture over lamb and toss to combine. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Stir in 2 teaspoons curry powder and heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot, brown the meat on all sides. Drizzle in additional oil, if needed, to prevent meat from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Transfer browned meat to a plate as it browns.
• Once all the meat has been browned, return it to the pot, along with any juices on the plate. Add enough water to just cover meat. Bring liquid to a simmer, covered, then uncover the pot and cook gently for 45 minutes.
• Stir potato, carrot and pepper into pot. Simmer until vegetables are fork tender and meat is cooked through, about 30 to 45 minutes longer.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer meat and vegetables to a bowl. Simmer cooking liquid until it has reduced and thickened to a saucy consistency (to taste), about 15 minutes. Taste sauce and add more salt if needed. Pour sauce over meat. Serve over rice, topped with a squeeze of lime, a dollop of mango chutney or pickle and fresh cilantro.
