Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large, lidded saucepan over a medium-high heat. Fry the onions for 8-10 mins until soft. Add the garlic and ginger; cook for 1 min. Stir in the curry paste and cook for 2 mins, stirring, then add the cinnamon, lamb and 1 tbsp coriander stalks. Cook for 4-5 mins to colour the lamb. Add the tomatoes and stock, season, cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 2 hrs, stirring occasionally, until the lamb is tender.
  2. Stir in the mango and most of the coriander leaves; cook for 15 mins. Meanwhile, cook the rice to pack instructions. Scatter the curry with the remaining coriander leaves, then serve with the rice and yogurt.

Tip: Make the curry up to 2 days in advance – freeze for up to 2 months.
