Lamb Curry with Peas image

For this curry, cubes of lamb become meltingly tender and richly flavored after a long, slow braise with spices like cinnamon, cardamon and turmeric. Thick Yukon Gold potatoes and frozen peas add some additional texture, while a half cup of whole-milk yogurt adds a refreshing creaminess. Recipe developed by Food Network Kitchen.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 pounds lamb stew meat
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup vegetable oil
4 green cardamom pods
1 1-inch piece cinnamon stick
1 whole clove
2 onions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
4 cloves garlic, grated
2 teaspoons ground coriander
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon Kashmiri chili powder or hot paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
3 small plum tomatoes, diced
1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks
1 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup plain whole-milk yogurt
Cooked basmati rice, for serving
Chopped fresh mint, for topping

Steps:

  • Season the lamb with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large Dutch oven over high heat. Add the lamb in a single layer and brown, turning once, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a plate. Reduce the heat to medium high and add the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to the pot along with the cardamom pods, cinnamon stick and clove. Cook, stirring, until the whole spices are toasted, about 20 seconds.
  • Add the onions, season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, until golden, about 2 minutes. Add the coriander, cumin, chili powder and turmeric; cook, stirring and scraping the pan, until the ground spices are toasted, about 30 seconds.
  • Add the tomatoes to the pot and cook, stirring, until they break down, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the lamb and any juices from the plate. Stir in 1 3/4 cups water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low, cover and simmer until the lamb is almost cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly, 1 hour 15 minutes.
  • Tuck the potatoes among the lamb pieces, submerging them in the liquid; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cover and simmer until the potatoes are cooked through, 18 to 20 minutes. Uncover and simmer, turning the potatoes occasionally, until the curry is thickened, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the peas and heat through.
  • Remove the curry from the heat and stir in the yogurt. Thin with water, if necessary; season with salt. Serve with rice and top with mint.

LAMB KEEMA CURRY



Lamb Keema Curry image

This lamb curry has lots of big, bright, brash flavors, and a marvelous fragrance when cooking. It's good either all by itself as a one-dish meal (combining meat and several vegetables), or served with an Indian flatbread, or over rice or noodles. Plain yogurt makes a pleasantly cool accompaniment. You might even try a dollop of Greek tzatziki sauce on your keema!

Time 1h30m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 (10 ounce) package frozen peas
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound ground lamb
1 cup diced onion
2 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
½ cup dried parsley
2 tablespoons curry powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon garam masala
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or more to taste
2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
2 medium tomatoes, diced
1 medium jalapeno pepper, diced, or more to taste
1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped

Steps:

  • Place peas in a microwave-safe container and cover loosely. Microwave until just heated through and bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and immediately cover with cold water to stop the cooking process, preserve the color, and reinflate any dimples or puckers. Set aside.
  • Heat olive oil in a nonstick frying pan or Dutch oven over medium-low heat. Stir lamb, onion, and garlic into the oil. Break up the ground lamb into morsels, stirring into the onion, garlic, and oil. Cover and begin gradually browning the lamb. Cook slowly until lamb is browned and a pool of rendered fat and liquid collects in the bottom of the pan, 10 to 20 minutes. Drain all fat, oil, and liquids.
  • Combine parsley, curry powder, cumin, garam masala, black pepper, cinnamon, coriander, ginger, turmeric and pepper flakes in a bowl, then stir into the lamb mixture. Cook over low heat until spices bloom, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in potatoes, tomatoes, and jalapenos. Cover and continue cooking and stirring until the potatoes are tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Set the lid ajar and let any liquids in the bottom of the pan steam off. Drain the peas and stir them into the keema. The keema will reheat them. Garnish individual servings with cilantro leaves.

LAMB KHEMMA / KHEEMA W/ PEAS, POTATOES & CARROTS



Lamb Khemma / Kheema W/ Peas, Potatoes & Carrots image

This is the Lamb Khemma recipe from my Indian cooking tutor, and tastes great with her Chapati recipe which I have posted (recipe #217108). It is important to pulp the ginger and garlic as I reckon it tastes different if you don't (I just used a spice grinder). My tutor also says not to burn the spices as they go bitter and ruin the dish. Patience is a virtue apparently! You may need to add some hot water if the lamb sticks to the pan, but add it slowly otherwise the dish becomes runny and too liquidy.
