Cook the Turmeric Potatoes
1

a) Fill and boil your kettle. Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (no need to peel).
b) Pour the boiled water into a large saucepan with half the turmeric and 1/2 tsp salt.
c) Add the potatoes to the water, then bring back to the boil and cook until you can easily slip a knife through, 12-15 mins.
d) Once cooked, drain in a colander and return to the pan, off the heat. Keep warm with the lid on.

Fry the Lamb
2

a) Meanwhile, put a large frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil).
b) Once hot, add the lamb mince and fry until browned, 5-6 mins. Use a spoon to break it up as it cooks. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw mince. The mince is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Prep your Veg
3

a) While the lamb browns, trim and halve the green beans.
b) Halve the baby plum tomatoes (or leave them whole if you'd prefer).

Spice It Up
4

a) Once browned, drain any excess fat from the mince, then stir in the green beans. Cook until starting to soften, 2-3 mins. Add a drizzle of oil if the pan looks dry.
b) Stir in the tomatoes, ginger puree, jalfrezi spice mix and the remaining turmeric.
c) Cook for 1 min, then stir in the veg stock paste and water for the curry (see pantry for amount).

Simmer your Curry
5

a) Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the beans are tender and the tomatoes have broken down, 3-5 mins.
b) Stir through the mango chutney. Add a splash of water if it's a little dry.
c) Season to taste with salt, pepper if needed.

Combine and Serve
6

a) Using whichever pan is largest, combine the lamb curry with the cooked potatoes and gently stir to combine.
b) Serve your lamb curry in deep bowls.
Enjoy!
