This is a really quick, tasty and economical mid week curry that all the family will love. Minced lamb cooks quickly, but try to use lean mince to keep the fat content down. Traditionally a mild curry, you can increase the heat if you like. It is quite a ‘dry’ curry without too much sauce so is best served with Naan bread, but you can serve it with boiled or steamed rice. Top with a dollop of yogurt or with mango chutney if liked.
