750 g lamb (can substitute chicken)
1 large onion, finely chopped
ghee or oil
2 inches fresh ginger, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
4 fresh tomatoes, chopped (or 1 can of tinned tomatoes)
500 g frozen chopped spinach (fresh spinach works fine too)

4 cloves
2 brown cardamom pods
1 teaspoon cumin seed
1/2 teaspoon turmeric

1/2 teaspoon ground coriander

1 tablespoon dried fenugreek leaves (optional)

Steps:

  • Remove fat and cut meat into cubes.

  • Add the browned meat, add Spices 2 and the spinach.
  • Stir it all about ensuring it doesn't stick and that the spinach is distributed throughout. (If it seems too dry add a little water.).
