Directions

Prep 10 minCook 30 min
  1. 1

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground lamb and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Break up the meat with a wooden spoon to achieve a crumbly texture. Drain off excess grease and set the meat aside.

  2. 2

    In the same skillet, heat the vegetable oil and add the diced onion. Cook and stir until the onion begins to brown, about 3 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute.

  3. 3

    Return the cooked lamb to the skillet and add the tomato paste, curry paste, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes, adding more water if needed.

  4. 4

    Stir in the peas, cover, and simmer for an additional 5 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with fresh cilantro.
