Lamb and the flavors of curry are a match made in heaven. Get this simmering on your stove and you'll be teased all day by the incredible aroma. This recipe is from Clyde Johnson, whose story can be found on page 36.


  • 2 lbs. boneless lamb stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 TB. WHOLE CORIANDER SEEDS
  • 11/2 tsp. WHOLE BLACK PEPPERCORNS
  • 11/2 tsp. WHOLE CARDAMOM SEEDS (Clyde prefers seeds from BLACK CARDAMOM)
  • 11/2 tsp. WHOLE CUMIN SEEDS
  • 6-8 WHOLE CLOVES
  • 1 4-inch CEYLON CINNAMON STICK, crumbled (or 1 INDONESIAN CINNAMON STICK, thrown in whole)
  • 1 TB. oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 large cloves garlic, crushed (1/2 tsp. PENZEYS MINCED GARLIC)
  • 11/2 tsp. freshly grated ginger (or 1/2 tsp. POWDERED GINGER)
  • 1 6-inch piece fresh lemon grass stem or 1 tsp. LEMON GRASS
  • 1 14-oz. can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 14-oz. can coconut milk
    Optional:
  • 2-4 hot red chili peppers (SANAAMS work well)
       

Grind the CORIANDER SEEDS, PEPPERCORNS, CARDAMOM SEEDS, CUMIN SEEDS, CLOVES and CINNAMON (if using CEYLON CINNAMON) in an electric mill or with mortar and pestle. Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet or Dutch oven. Add the lamb and cook until nicely browned. Remove from the pan and set aside. Add the onion, garlic, ginger and lemon grass to the skillet and cook until the onion is tender. Add the spice mixture and cook for another 3 minutes. Return the lamb to the pan and add the undrained tomatoes, coconut milk, CHILI PEPPERS and CINNAMON STICK (if using INDONESIAN CINNAMON STICK). Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook, uncovered, stirring often, for approximately 11/2 hours or until the lamb is tender. Serve over cooked rice. Remove CINNAMON STICK and CHILI PEPPERS before serving.
