Minced Lamb & Pea Curry (Kheema Mutter Curry)

Minced Lamb & Pea Curry (Kheema Mutter Curry)

This is a good hearty, mild curry, and is a perfect weekday meal as it uses ingredients you most likely will have in the fridge or the cupboard somewhere...... Mince isn't commonly used in curry, however you will find that it absorbs the flavours and the spices perfectly. And far from tasting like something that has 'just been rustled up' though, it is deceptively easy and is sure to enter your weekday meal roster.
