"The original recipe for this curry is made with lamb loin chops but since they are so expensive, I tried making it with leftover roast lamb. It was a big hit. This is now my standby recipe whenever we don't finish a leg of lamb."

Fast and easy AND delicious. Great way to use leftover lamb. I did substitute lamb broth for the chicken. I just took the lamb bone and boiled it and added that broth to the sauce. This will be a dish I will make again and again. Thank you.

This recipe is a good base, but I needed to spice it up a tad. To do so I substituted: butter with ghee; thyme for the chopped stems and roots of three coriander (cilantro) plants; 2 tablespoons of Madras curry paste for the curry powder. I then cooked one diced onion and four finely-chopped cloves of garlic in ghee on medium heat for about 10 mins. Add curry paste and simmer gently for about 5 mins. Add apple, celery, raisins, half a cup of chicken stock and 1 can of chopped tomatoes and simmer for 10 mins. Blend in food processor and return to pan and heat. Add diced lamb and simmer for 10 mins. Serve over Basmati rice garnished with chopped coriander leaves.

Wow! What a great and adaptable recipe for leftover lamb! We changed it a bit: - for veggies sauteed onion, 1 cubed and peeled russett potatoe and garlic - added 1/4 t tumeric instead of thyme - added 1 can of coconut milk instead of chicken broth - used 1 cup of tomato sauce instead of tomatoes - added 1 can of rinsed garbanzo beans with the lamb at the last 5 minutes AND - put the whole over Basmati rice and - topped that with chopped cilantro Absolutely Delicious and cooked in 30 minutes. Only thing I would do differently is decrease the curry powder to 1.5 T. It was great but a little spicy for the hubby!

Hubby and I both loved this dish. Spice was perfect! I made with beef broth instead of chicken and used fresh instead of canned tomatoes, and pureed all ingredients with the stick blender prior to adding the lamb. Thanks for the great recipe Irmgard.

<p>I live with my husband, four cats, and a sweet mutt named Jada in Scarborough, Ontario, where I work as an elementary school administrative assistant. I have a 31 year old daughter who lives with her boyfriend in nearby Don Mills, along with my sweet granddogs, Frankie and Turbo. I would have to say that my passion is animals, since I have so many of them! <br /><img src=http://images.quizilla.com/H/h0t5auce/1108834307_brown_answer.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/532663/cookswithcattitude.JPG alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r271/copperhorse58/CalendarGirlsSwap2009.jpg alt= /> <br /><br />If I had a month off work to do what I please, I would first catch up on my sleep and then just have fun - see a few movies and maybe take a couple of short trips - something that wouldn't break the bank - lol!</p>
