Method

  • step 1

    Put the onions in a food processor and whizz until very finely chopped. Heat the oil in a large heavy-based pan, then fry the onion with the lid on, stirring every now and then, until it is really golden and soft. Add the garlic and ginger, then fry for 5 mins more.

  • step 2

    Tip the curry paste, all the spices and the bay leaves into the pan, with the tomato purée. Stir well over the heat for about 30 secs, then add the meat and 300ml water. Stir to mix, turn down the heat, then add the yogurt.

  • step 3

    Cover the pan, then gently simmer for 40-60 mins until the meat is tender and the sauce nice and thick. Serve scattered with coriander, with plain basmati or pilau rice.

question

I've made this exact to recipe but it is very watery I've tried adding more yogurt but it's just not thickening any suggestions please

I had the same problem! So glad you asked this question, I will try again, keeping in mind both suggestions for a thicker sauce.

Beautiful. Very easy to make. Used more curry paste as we like a bit more spice. Will definitely make this again

Use whatever meat you like, It is the sauce that matters, if you like that then that is all that matters as far as I am concerned. Don't be afaid to experiment and be creative.

What a winner! Lovely flavours but a bit light on spiced heat for me. My partner doesn’t like lamb? If I used beef would that change any of the timings?

tip

I made my own curry paste. I mixed my favourite spices with some oil into a thick paste. I used , medium curry powder, garam masala, coriander, cumin, . I added bay leaves cloves cinnamon stick too. It taste fantastic.
