Lamb Curry

This is a flavorful dish that will fill your house with fabulous smells.  You can use different vegetables to give some variety, and it would work well with all vegetables instead of meat.  I buy my curry powder from Mountain Rose Herbs which provides high quality spices with no fillers, or you can find a recipe and make your own.  Curry powder is easy and fun to make. 

INGREDIENTS:

2 T coconut oil
1 lb cubed lamb meat or lamb stew meat (ground meat would probably also work)
1 large or 2 medium onions
3-4 carrots
1 T grated ginger root
3 cloves of garlic
2 tsp curry powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 c broth
1 c coconut milk


METHOD:

Cut the onion into large pieces and chop the carrots into 1-inch lengths, set aside.

Melt the coconut oil in a large pot and brown the meat.  Remove the meat and set aside, leaving the fat in the pan.

Saute the onions on mediumuntil they soften, about 10 minutes.  Then add the garlic, ginger, and curry powder and saute a little longer.  Add the carrots and continue to stir to coat them with the spice mixture.

Pour in the stock and scrape up any brown bits that are still stuck to the bottom of the pan from browning the meat.  Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer. 

Add the meat back in and simmer for 30 minutes.
