Spicy Lamb Curry image

I've tweaked this curry over the years using a blend of aromatic spices. Fenugreek seeds can be found in specialty spice stores and are common in Middle Eastern curries and chutneys, but you can leave them out of this recipe if you desire. -Janis Kracht, Windsor, New York

I love that this recipe uses yogurt. The yogurt helps to tenderize the lamb and makes the sauce very creamy. I also love the addition of cilantro. It really adds a fresh flavor to the curry.
