Spiced Lamb with Cauliflower Rice

This is a very easy spiced casserole using a curry paste. I added some root vegetables to bulk it out a little but you could use just lamb, or a different selection of vegetables. And here's another way to use cauliflower as a carbohydrate substitute! It ends up more like couscous than a rice really, it's a great way to eat more vegetables and makes a delicious low-carb meal.

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Peel and chop the vegetables.

* Step 2

Fry the cubes of lamb in a large frying pan with a little olive oil. When lightly browned transfer to a casserole dish.

* Step 3

Fry the onion in the same frying pan, with a little more olive oil if needed. When golden add the garlic and ginger, stir through then transfer to the casserole with the chopped vegetables (no need to fry these). Preheat the oven to 180°C/Gas 4.

* Step 4

Add the tomatoes and their juice, if tinned, to the frying pan, together with the spice paste, add a couple of glasses of water and stir it all together, bringing to a simmer. Pour into the casserole.

* Step 5

The ingredients should be just covered with water, you don't want too much. Bring to a simmer on the stove, cover, then transfer to the oven. Cook for 90 minutes, stirring a couple of times, then check the lamb is tender and the liquid has mostly evaporated. Cook for another 30 minutes with the heat turned down to 160°C/Gas 3 if you like a really tender, almost shredded end result.

* Step 6

To make the cauliflower rice cut the cauliflower into florets and blitz briefly in a food processor. Transfer to 'rice' to a large frying pan with some melted butter, dripping or olive oil and salt and pepper. Stir fry the cauliflower for 3-4 minutes.
