Curry Lamb Stir Fry Recipes

Steps:

• Lightly toast coriander in a small pan, shaking over medium heat about 2 minutes. Repeat with cumin, cooking about 1 minute. Pour coriander, cumin and peppercorns into a sturdy bag and crush with a rolling pin, or use a mortar and pestle.
• Place oil in a large pan over medium high heat. Add onion and sauté until soft on edges, about 5 minutes, stirring often. Add garlic and ginger, and cook another minute or two. Stir in meat and cook, turning, for 8 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle with coriander, cumin, peppercorns, turmeric, cinnamon stick and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir. Add yogurt, milk and coconut milk, and gently bring just to a boil; cover and simmer gently until lamb is cooked through, 20 minutes. Fold in scallions, cilantro and a little lemon juice. Serve over Basmati rice.

Steps:

• In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast cumin seeds and peppercorns until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a mortar and pestle and crush lightly.
• Slice meat across the grain into 1/2-inch-thick strips. Toss meat with crushed spices, ground cumin, salt and dried chiles.
• Peel onion and halve it through the root end. Trim the ends and cut each half lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Cut white and light green parts of scallions into 2-inch lengths. Thinly slice scallion greens; keep separate.
• Heat a very large skillet or wok over high heat until screaming hot, about 5 minutes. Add oil. Toss in onion and the scallion bottoms. Cook, tossing occasionally, until vegetables are lightly charred but still crisp, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Add lamb and chiles to skillet. Cook, tossing quickly, until meat begins to brown. Add garlic, soy sauce and sherry. Cook until most of the liquid has evaporated and lamb is cooked through, about 2 minutes. Toss in onions and scallion bottoms. Remove from heat and mix in cilantro and scallion greens. Serve hot, over rice.

Steps:

• In a bowl combine egg white, wine, cornstarch, salt and pepper. Add lamb and set aside to marinate 1 hour.
• Heat a large wok or skillet over high heat until a drop of water sizzles on contact. Swirl half the oil into wok and carefully add lamb, spreading it in a single layer. Let sear a moment, then stir-fry briskly just until lamb is no longer pink. Transfer to a plate. (If your wok is not large enough to hold all the lamb, do this in 2 batches, using extra oil.)
• Swirl remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil into empty wok, add cumin seeds and chiles and stir-fry a few seconds until cumin seeds start to pop. Press chiles against sides of wok to char their skins.
• Add scallions and stir-fry 1 minute. Then return lamb to wok and stir-fry 1 to 2 minutes more until lamb is cooked through. Turn off heat, sprinkle with salt and drops of sesame oil, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat, fry onion in oil until edges are nicely browned. Add garlic, ginger, and green chile and stir for 1 minute.
• Mix ground spices with water to form a paste; add to onion mixture. Stir briefly until spices release their fragrance.
• Add lamb and salt and fry over medium heat, stirring frequently util lamb is cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Taste for salt.
• Stir in lemon juice and remove from heat.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic in hot oil until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Stir curry powder, cumin, salt, and pepper into the onion mixture. Add asparagus and broccoli to the skillet, pour water over the vegetables, and cook until slightly tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Stir shrimp into the vegetable mixture; cook and stir until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Put ½ the thumb-sized piece of ginger, 2 quartered onions and 4 garlic cloves in a food processor with 300ml water. Blitz to a smooth purée.
• Scrape down the sides with a spoon and blitz again to make it as smooth as you can. Tip into a deep sauté pan, cover with a lid and simmer for 15 mins.
• Remove the lid and cook for 5 mins more, stirring occasionally. By now the liquid should be all gone. If not, cook a little longer.
• Add 2 tbsp rapeseed oil to the pan with the remaining piece of ginger, cut into matchsticks. Turn up the heat and fry, stirring, for 3-5 mins until it starts to colour.
• Stir in 1 cinnamon stick, 1 tbsp ground coriander, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1 tsp ground turmeric and ½ tsp fennel seeds, then add 750g leg of lamb. Stir-fry until the lamb changes colour.
• Tip in 400g can chopped tomatoes with a can of water and 1 deseeded and sliced red or green chilli, season well, cover and leave to simmer for 1 hr.
• Stir in the finely chopped stalks from a small bunch coriander, re-cover and cook for a final 30 mins until the lamb is tender. Add a splash of water if necessary to loosen the consistency as it cooks.
• Stir in the roughly chopped coriander leaves and serve with basmati rice and mango chutney or raita.
