Enjoy!!

Try using smoked paprika instead - i did as it was all i had in the cupboard - it'll give it a slight smokeyness to the curry that was a real winner when i made it for friends recently!

i think this is the one [link]

Can anyone email Rick Stein's Lamb curry recipe to me please?
Thanks

Saw repeat of Rick Stein's lamb curry on SFTW last week. Where can I find the recipe please. Wrote it down at the time but no quantities. Can't find it anywhere

Hi Georgie,

The difference between the two types is that the red ones tend to be hotter. My advice would be , if a recipe asks for 4 green chilies then use 2 red ones, if it asks for 2 then use one and so on.

On the whole it does depend on the vartiy of chili, but for me this way is a safe bet.

Hi Sharon

The curry recipe is in Rick Stein's food heroes book - ISBN 0-563-53474-5 by the BBC. This is his main food heros cookery book and has a white cover. The 2nd book on this subject is more of a directory than a cookery book and has a sort of pink cover.

Reshma - I have loads of small red chillies in my freezer and use them whenever a recipe calls for chillies. But many recipes specifically say green chillies. Does it make a big difference which ones I use? I would welcome your advice.

Many thanks

Hi Everyone,

This may not be as good as Rick Steins, but below is how I make it.

500g Lamb, cubed
500g Spinach
2 Onions, thinly sliced
2tsp Garlic paste ( 4 cloves crushed )
11/2 tsp Chilli powder
11/2 tsp Salt
11/2 tsp Coriander powder
1 tsp Cumin powder
¼ tsp Turmeric
2 Large tomatoes, chopped
11/2 tsp Ginger paste ( 11/2 inch piece minced )
3 Green chillies chopped
250ml Water
4tbls Vegetable oil.

1. Place onions, garlic, salt, chili powder, coriander, cumin, turmeric, meat and water in a heavy based saucepan, cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until meat is half cooked.
2. Add tomatoes and ginger to the meat and cook for 5 minutes, stirring all the time to mash tomatoes.
3. Add oil and cook for 5 to 10 minutes, keep stirring all the time. You may have to add one or two tablespoons of water to prevent gravy from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
4. Put the spinach in a food processor or blender and blend for 2-3 minutes or until smooth.
5. When the gravy begins to release oil, add spinach and green chilies. Stirring constantly cook for 3-5 minutes, then cover the pan, reduce heat and cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally. At this stage spinach should be mushy and creamy. Cook the curry for few more minutes if it appears thin or add water if the spinach is dry. Adjust the seasoning with salt.

Hope you like it

does anyone know which one of rick steins food heroes books the recipe for the lamb curry appears in.I wanted to make the recipe today

Thanks for that info Rustie.

I knew about the copyright restrictions obviously, but had always thought that it would be the website (UK Food) who could be sued and not the individual person who posted the recipe that could be sued.

Maybe this is a point that Ian could confirm for us.

thanks rustie i never knew it looks like il have to buy the book.

Rick Stein's recipes cannot be put on this site as it does not have permission to publish his recipes. If a recipe is posted it will be deleted due to copyright restrictions as has happened before. This is done as it does not just break the website rules but also for the protection of the person who posts a copyrighted recipe as it is they not the website who can be sued. This applies, from what I know, to any recipe that is not strictly your own.

Unfortunately this recipe does not appear on another website either so the only option would be to buy the book or borrow it from a library.

does anyone have the recipe for the lamb curry rick stein made in his food heroes when in bradford help please thanks

Hi have just been watching the Lamb Curry dish on tv. Karen if you still have recipe can you let me have it or if you know where i can get it. Cheers. Or does anyone else know where i can get it from
