Ingredients

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
salt and black pepper to taste
3 ½ pounds cubed lamb stew meat
6 tablespoons butter, divided
2 large onion, chopped
2 tablespoons brown sugar
3 tablespoons curry powder
1 large Granny Smith apple - peeled, cored, and cubed
1 cup chicken stock
½ cup raisins
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps:

Place the flour in a plastic bag; season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the lamb, and shake until evenly coated with flour. Melt half of the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Cook the lamb in batches until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes per batch; set aside.
Reduce heat to medium and add the remaining butter. Stir in the onions, and cook until the onions have softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar, curry powder, apples, chicken stock, raisins, and browned lamb. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the lamb is very tender, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Stir in the lemon juice and cook 2 minutes before serving.

1 tablespoon ground coriander, a palmful
1 tablespoon ground cumin or cumin seed, a palmful
2 teaspoons turmeric, 2/3 palmful
2 cardamom pods, split, or 1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced or chopped
2 sweet red bell peppers, seeded and chopped
2 hot chile peppers, such as Fresno chiles, sliced
One 1-inch piece ginger root, grated
1 onion, finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups passata or tomato sauce
1 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup mango chutney, such as Patak brand Major Grey's
1 large fresh bay leaf
1 small cinnamon stick
One 15-ounce can diced tomatoes
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken, boneless leg of lamb or beef sirloin, cubed into bite-size pieces
2 limes, juiced
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
12 ounces farm spinach (bundles), stemmed and cleaned, coarsely chopped
Grilled naan bread and/or basmati rice
Plain Greek-style yogurt
Cilantro leaves
Thinly sliced scallions

Steps:

Marinate the meat sprinkled with salt, pepper and paprika in the lime juice for 1 hour.
Heat the oil in a Dutch oven, then add the coriander, cumin, turmeric and cardamom and stir until very fragrant, 1 minute. Next add the garlic, sweet and hot peppers, ginger, onions and some salt and pepper. Soften for 5 minutes partially covered, and then add the passata, stock, chutney, bay leaf, cinnamon stick and diced tomatoes. Simmer over low heat, about 1 hour. Remove the bay and cinnamon.
Add the marinated meat to the sauce and simmer to tender. Wilt the spinach into the sauce. Serve, or cool and store in the refrigerator or freezer for a make-ahead meal.
Serve the curry with naan bread and/or over rice with a dollop of yogurt for mixing in. Garnish with cilantro and scallion slices.

Tips:

Choose the right cut of lamb: Lamb shoulder is the best cut for this curry as it is full of flavor and becomes tender when cooked slowly.
Brown the lamb before cooking: Browning the lamb in a hot pan before adding it to the curry will help to develop its flavor and give it a nice color.
Use a good quality curry paste: The curry paste is the key to a great lamb curry, so it's worth investing in a good one. Look for a paste that is made with fresh, flavorful ingredients.
Simmer the curry for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors of the curry to meld together and develop.
Serve the curry with rice or naan bread: Rice or naan bread are the perfect accompaniments to lamb curry, as they help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Sweet lamb curry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The lamb is tender and flavorful, and the curry sauce is rich and creamy. This curry is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
