Ingredients

2-3 tbsp sunflower oil
1kg diced lamb, such as leg or neck fillets
2 large onions, thinly sliced
2 large potatoes, cubed
150g jar hot curry paste
2 x 400g cans chopped tomatoes
2 x 400g cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed
Dollop of mango chutney
Juice of 2 lemons
Bunch of fresh coriander, chopped

Method

Heat the oil in a large lidded pan and batch-fry the lamb until browned. Remove from the pan and set aside in a large bowl. Add the onions and potatoes to the pan, then cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring regularly, until the onions are soft and golden.
Return the lamb and any resting juices to the pan. Stir in the curry paste, tomatoes and chickpeas, then bring to the boil. Cover and simmer for 1 hour until the meat is tender, then stir in the chutney. Season with salt, pepper and the lemon juice. Remove half and leave to cool. Freeze in freezer bags for up to 3 months.
Spoon the remainder into bowls, sprinkle over the chopped coriander and serve with warm naan breads.
