Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp sunflower oil
  • 500g/1lb 2oz lamb neck
  • 2 onions
  • 3 large garlic
  • 3 tbsp medium curry paste
  • 1 x 400g tin chopped tomatoes
  • 150g/5½oz dried split red lentils
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 75g/2½oz curly kale
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • steamed ricenaan bread

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a large, lidded, non-stick saucepan over a medium heat. Add the lamb, onions and garlic and fry for 5-6 minutes until lightly browned, stirring regularly.
  • Add the curry paste and stir well to coat the lamb and onions. Continue to cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring well, then add the tomatoes, lentils, 500ml/18fl oz water and salt. Bring the mixture to the boil. Reduce the heat until the mixture is simmering, then half-cover the pan with the lid and simmer very gently for 45-50 minutes, stirring regularly, until the lamb is very tender. (Add a little extra water if the curry is beginning to look dry before the lamb is tender.)
  • Season with salt and pepper, stir in the kale and simmer for a further 2-3 minutes, or until tender.
  • Serve in bowls with steamed rice or warm naan bread.
