Zola Nene's Lamb Curry

(Serves 4) 

Growing up, we had curry at

least twice a week for supper,

whether it was chicken, beef or,

my personal favourite, lamb. My

mom makes the best curry in the

word. I’ve spent years trying to

emulate her yummy lamb curry

and this recipe is the result. 

Ingredients

30ml olive oil 

2 onions, sliced 

15ml garlic and ginger

paste 

30ml mild curry powder 

15ml ground coriander 

15ml ground cumin 

6 lamb leg chops, bone in,

chopped into chunks 

4 tomatoes, chopped 

250ml beef stock 

4 potatoes, peeled and

quartered 

salt to taste 

60ml chopped fresh coriander 

steamed white rice for serving 

Directions

Heat the oil over medium

heat in a large saucepan

with a tight-fitting lid. 

Add the onions and

sauté until softened and

beginning to brown. 

Add the garlic and ginger

paste, curry

powder, coriander and

cumin and sauté for a few

seconds 

Add the lamb, stirring

and turning to coat in the

spices. 

When the lamb begins

to brown around the edges,

add the tomatoes and

sauté until the moisture

evaporates and the tomatoes

start to break down. 

Stir in the beef stock and

potatoes. 

Season with salt to

taste, reduce the heat and

simmer with the lid on for

45 minutes or until the lamb

is tender 

Garnish the curry with

fresh coriander and serve

with steamed white rice.
