INDIAN LAMB CURRY WITH BASMATI RICE



Indian Lamb Curry With Basmati Rice image

This wonderfully spiced dish is halfway completed before you start cooking. I've slowly begun to realize that my most successful lamb dishes were made from what was left over from a meal of lamb shanks. When braising season began, I cooked two sizable lamb shanks and, of course, enjoyed them. But I really got into it over the following couple of nights, when I wound up using them to create marvelous meals.

WEST INDIAN LAMB CURRY



West Indian Lamb Curry image

Curried goat is a popular dish in the West Indies, but lamb makes a fine substitute here in the United States, where goat meat is hard to find. This version, by the chef Martin Maginley from the Round Hill resort in Jamaica, is deeply flavored with allspice and Scotch bonnet peppers, but not overwhelming spicy. If you have time to make it the day before, it gets better as it sits, and gives you a chance to scoop some of the fat off the top of the stew before reheating over a low flame. And if you can procure goat, use it here in place of the lamb.

Categories     dinner, curries, main course

Time 2h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 pounds boneless lamb (or goat) stew meat, cut into 2-inch chunks
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons curry powder
1 tablespoon kosher salt, more to taste
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 large white onion, coarsely chopped
2 scallions, coarsely chopped
4 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
1/2 inch fresh ginger, peeled if desired and coarsely chopped
4 whole allspice berries
2 thyme sprigs, leaves stripped
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, more as needed
1 1/2 cups diced potato
1 cup diced carrots
1 to 2 small Scotch bonnet peppers, seeded and chopped
Cooked white rice or coconut rice, for serving (see note)
Lime wedges, for serving
Mango chutney or mango pickle, for serving
Fresh cilantro leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • Pat lamb dry with paper towels and place in a large bowl. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon curry powder, the salt, the ground ginger and the black pepper. Add spice mix to large bowl and toss with lamb.
  • Combine onion, scallion, garlic, fresh ginger, allspice, thyme leaves and 2 tablespoons oil in a blender; purée until smooth. Scrape mixture over lamb and toss to combine. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Stir in 2 teaspoons curry powder and heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot, brown the meat on all sides. Drizzle in additional oil, if needed, to prevent meat from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Transfer browned meat to a plate as it browns.
  • Once all the meat has been browned, return it to the pot, along with any juices on the plate. Add enough water to just cover meat. Bring liquid to a simmer, covered, then uncover the pot and cook gently for 45 minutes.
  • Stir potato, carrot and pepper into pot. Simmer until vegetables are fork tender and meat is cooked through, about 30 to 45 minutes longer.
  • Using a slotted spoon, transfer meat and vegetables to a bowl. Simmer cooking liquid until it has reduced and thickened to a saucy consistency (to taste), about 15 minutes. Taste sauce and add more salt if needed. Pour sauce over meat. Serve over rice, topped with a squeeze of lime, a dollop of mango chutney or pickle and fresh cilantro.

THAI-CURRIED LAMB SHANKS WITH CILANTRO RICE



Thai-Curried Lamb Shanks With Cilantro Rice image

I love lamb shanks, but I was looking for something different. I adapted this recipe from http://www.australian-lamb.com. Green curry paste is too spicy for me unless I make my own. I like an adaptation of Recipe #99030 -- Thai green curry paste gone greener -- with the chilies reduced. Otherwise I use yellow curry paste. SERVING SUGGESTION: Great with steamed snap peas and a glass of Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay!

Provided by mary134e

Categories     Curries

Time 6h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 (1 lb) lamb shanks
2 tablespoons canola oil or 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
1 white onion
1 cup white wine (I prefer red, original recipe calls for white) or 1 cup red wine (I prefer red, original recipe calls for white)
1 (14 fluid ounce) can coconut milk
1 lime, juice and grated zest
2 tablespoons thai green curry paste (buy or make your own, I prefer yellow curry paste)
2 stalks fresh lemongrass, tender white end only, peeled, crushed and chopped
3 tablespoons diced fresh ginger
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 -3 tablespoons canola oil or 2 -3 tablespoons grapeseed oil
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 cup jasmine rice (I use Thai Jasmine Brown Rice) or 1 cup short grain rice (I use Thai Jasmine Brown Rice)
2 -3 cups water (for cooking rice)

Steps:

  • Trim lamb shanks of excess fat and sinew and place in large dish. Combine coconut milk, lime juice and zest, curry paste, and half of the lemongrass and ginger. Pour over shanks. Cover and marinate 2-3 hours, turning lamb occasionally. Drain the lamb well, pour marinade through a sieve and set aside.
  • Heat oil in large casserole dish and sauté onion with remaining lemongrass and ginger. Add lamb and brown on all sides. Add the marinade and wine and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 2-3 hours or until very tender and meat is starting to fall off the bone. (Add more wine or water if necessary.).
  • When the lamb is nearly cooked, prepare the rice. Place cilantro in a food processor and add oil and vinegar. Process until smooth, adding more oil if necessary to make a sauce consistency. Set aside. Cook rice according to directions on the package and fluff with fork. Fold half of the cilantro dressing into the rice.
  • Spoon rice onto plates and top with lamb shank. Spoon over strained pan juices and drizzle with remaining cilantro dressing.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality lamb: Opt for grass-fed or pasture-raised lamb for the best flavor and texture.
  • Trim excess fat: Trim away excess fat from the lamb before cooking to reduce grease and calories.
  • Marinate the lamb: Marinating the lamb in a mixture of yogurt, spices, and herbs helps tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: A heavy-bottomed pot distributes heat evenly, preventing the lamb from scorching.
  • Cook the lamb slowly: Low and slow cooking allows the lamb to become fall-apart tender.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: Avoid overcrowding the pot with lamb, as this can prevent it from cooking evenly.
  • Use a variety of spices: Experiment with different spices to create a unique and flavorful curry.
  • Adjust the heat level to your preference: Add more or less chili powder or cayenne pepper to adjust the heat level of the curry.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Serve the curried lamb with rice, naan bread, or your favorite sides.
