Saag Gosht (Lamb and Spinach Curry)
- 400 grams Lamb (Leg steak is probably best)
- 400 grams Chopped Tomatoes
- 100 ml Red Wine
- 1 Onion
- 100 grams Fresh Spinach (Washed)
- 6 clove Garlic
- 3 Fresh Chillies
- 2 tsp Grated Ginger
- 2 tsp Ground Cumin
- 2 tsp Ground Coriander
- 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 3 Cardamom pods
- 1 tsp Salt
- Slice the onion.
- Place a large pan (big enough to hold all the ingredients - and with a lid too, you'll need one later) on the stove on a medium heat and add a splash of oil.
- Once the oil is hot add the onios and a pinch of salt and fry until they have browned slightly (it'll take about 10 minutes).
- Once they're done remove them from the pan and set aside.
- MEANWHILE, cut the lamb into 1-inch cubes and finely chop the chilli (The recipe will give a medium hot curry if you include the seeds.
- Use less chilli or remove the seeds if you like it milder.
- Or go for it and add more!
- :)) and garlic.
- After the onions have cooked and removed from the pan, add the lamb to it (add a bit more oil if necessary) and fry until browned (it'll take 4-5 minutes).
- Then remove that from the pan and set aside with the onions.
- Add a little more oil to the pan and add all of the spice ingredients.
- Stir fry for a minute or so and then add in the red wine.
- Allow it to boil for a minute or too, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any of the stuff that caramelised earlier.
- Add the chopped tomatoes, onions and lamb to the pan.
- Once it's come to the boil turn the heat right down, put the lid on and leave it to blip away for 2 hours.
- Shred the spinach leaves and add all but a handful of them to the curry.
- Stir it in and cook for a further 5 minutes.
- Just before serving stir in the last handful of spinach.
- Plate up and enjoy!
