It’s enough of a treat for a weekend fakeaway or impressive enough for cooking for guests, but it’s also quick and easy enough for a midweek family dinner too (about 30 minutes). There are many praises I can sing about this delicious one-pan Lamb Keema Curry, but let’s start with how flipping EASY it is! Lamb mince is also divine so I’m very happy I’ve found an easy way to introduce it to our meal planning. It’s also great for trying something a little different if you usually eat a lot of chicken or beef. It’s a great recipe for batch cooking and freezing for another day, and you can adapt it for a beef mince curry if you’d prefer. Personally I love this with lamb as it tastes so unlike anything else, but I get that some people just don’t like it.
Why you’ll love this Lamb Keema recipe
⭐️ Low effort, high quality ⭐️ Quick and budget-friendly ⭐️ Perfect fakeaway or midweek dinner There is no one-size-fits all recipe for keema as such, as different cultures have their own creations dating back generations. Here we have substituted a list of spices with a curry paste, which allows time-poor cooks the chance to enjoy this recipe. This is something I have put into practice a lot with my curry recipes, which always taste good even though they’re quick and easy (and the whole family will eat them!) If you want to try having a go at a keema with your own paste, The Curry Guy’s recipe here is great and he always has easy-to-follow recipes. This Cook with Nabeela keema recipe also looks amazing. In the freezer This recipe freezes well so you could make a large batch. Just wait until it’s totally cold and then put into a freezer proof container and freeze for up to 3 months. Defrost thoroughly before reheating. We also love this with poppadoms, naan breads or chapatis, or sometimes my Easy Flatbreads. Serve up a simple raita (yoghurt dip/sauce) using plain yoghurt mixed with fresh mint or mint sauce.
