Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, salt, and pepper. Add the lamb cubes, seal the bag, and shake well to coat evenly. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add the floured lamb and sear on all sides until golden brown. Remove the lamb from the pot and set aside. (Cook time: 15-20 minutes)

03

Step

Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter to the pot. Add the chopped onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent. (Cook time: 5 minutes)

04

Step

Add the cubed apple, chicken stock, raisins, brown sugar, curry powder, and seared lamb to the pot. Stir well to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium-high heat. (Prep time: 3 minutes)

05

Step

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer gently until the lamb is very tender, stirring occasionally. (Simmer time: 1 to 1 ½ hours)

06

Step

Stir in the fresh lemon juice and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. (Cook time: 2 minutes)

For a richer flavor, use lamb stock instead of chicken stock.
If you prefer a spicier curry, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a finely chopped chili pepper along with the curry powder.
This curry tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have time to meld together. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Serve with basmati rice, naan bread, and your favorite sambals, such as mango chutney, cucumber raita, or banana with lemon juice.
