Method

  1. Heat the oil in a lidded saucepan over a medium-high heat. Fry the onions for 8-10 mins until soft. Add the garlic and ginger; cook for 1 min. Stir in the curry paste and cook for 2 mins, stirring, then add the cinnamon, lamb and coriander stalks. Cook for 4-5 mins to colour the lamb. Add the tomatoes and stock, season with black pepper, cover and reduce the heat to low.
  2. Cook for 1 hr, stirring occasionally, then remove the lid and cook for another 1 hr, or until the lamb is tender and the sauce has thickened.
  3. Stir in the mango and most of the coriander leaves; cook for 15 mins. Meanwhile, heat the rice to pack instructions. Scatter the curry with the remaining coriander leaves, then serve with the rice and yogurt, plus naan bread, if you like.
