This is a home-style British Indian Restaurant (BIR) curry that combines Indian spicing with the traditional flavours of Wales (Welsh lamb, leeks and spring onions). Pre-cooked lamb is used.

Ingredients:

400g pre-cooked lamb (Welsh lamb, obviously)
800ml base curry sauce
3 tbsp Vegetable oil
2 tsp ginger-garlic paste
1 tsp Salt
2 medium Leeks; washed, trimmed and finely sliced
1 1/2 tsp ground Coriander seeds
1/2 tsp Chilli powder
1 1/2 tsp Cumin powder
6 tbsp Spring Onions, finely sliced
4 tbsp Tomato purée
1 tsp freshly-ground Black Pepper
1 1/2 tsp Garam Masala
1 tsp pudina chutney (Indian mint sauce)
2 tbsp Coriander leaves, finely chopped

Method:

Heat the oil in your pan and add the leek and spring onion and stir fry for a few minutes. Add the garlic & ginger puree, stir thoroughly then add the salt, black pepper and dried spices, excluding the garam masala.

Cook everything for a minute or so, until the spices become fragrant, then add the lamb.

After a minute of stirring the meat through the spice mixture add the tomato puree and half of the base gravy.

Allow everything to thicken a little then add the chopped coriander and mint sauce, and stir well. Add the remaining base gravy and garam masala, thicken to your preference and serve, garnished with a little more finely sliced spring onion.
