Lamb Curry Rawlins Plantation Directions
Make Curry Paste: In a small heavy skillet dry-roast seeds and all
spices except turmeric together over moderate heat, stirring, until
fragrant and coriander seeds are several shades darker, being careful
not to burn them. Cool mixture and grind to a powder. In a bowl stir
together spice powder, turmeric, and water to form a paste.
Make Chili Puree: Wearing rubber gloves, stem and seed chilies and
cut with scissors into 1/2-inch pieces. In a small bowl soak chilies
in warm water to cover for 20 min and drain in a sieve. Puree
chilies, onions, and ginger in a food processor.
In a heavy kettle (at least 5-quarts) heat oil over moderate heat
until hot but not smoking and cook puree, stirring, until oil begins
to separate from puree and puree begins sticking to bottom of kettle.
Add curry paste and cook over moderately low heat, stirring
constantly, 4 min. Add lamb and cook, stirring, until outside is not
longer pink. Add water to just cover lamb and salt to taste and
simmer, covered, 1-1 1/2 hours, or until lamb is tender. Peel
potatoes and cut into 3/4-inch cubes. Add potatoes to curry, making
sure they are covered with liquid, and simmer, uncovered, until
tender, about 15 min. Stir in coconut milk, lime juice, tomatoes, and
bell peppers and simmer 5 min. Just before serving add curry leaves.
