Step 1

Instruction

Bring the water (see ingredients for amount) to the boil in a large saucepan over high heat. Stir in the basmati rice. Cover with a lid, lower the heat to a simmer and cook for 10 mins, then remove from the heat and set aside (still covered) for another 10 mins. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam.

Step 3

Instruction

Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on high heat. When really hot, add the lamb and stir-fry until browned all over, 3-4 mins. TIP: Don't overcook the lamb, you just want to get a good colour on it - we will be adding it back to the sauce later on! Remove from the pan using a slotted spoon (keep the pan).

Stir in the diced tomatoes, water (see ingredients for amount), stock pot and a pinch of sugar (if you have some). Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to medium- low. Cook until thick and tomatoey, stirring occasionally, 8-10 mins.
