Time 40m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cup long-grain rice
8 ounces boneless leg of lamb
12 ounces whole onion, or 11 ounces chopped ready-cut onion (2 1/4 to 2 1/2 cups)
1 teaspoon canola oil
1 medium head cauliflower, or 16 ounces cauliflower florets (6 cups)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon hot-pepper flakes
1 cup frozen peas
5 sprigs cilantro (1 tablespoon chopped)
1/8 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine rice with 1 1/2 cups water, and bring to boil in heavy-bottomed pot. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 17 minutes.
  • Trim fat from meat, wash and dry. Cut into bite-size pieces. Chop whole onion.
  • Heat large nonstick pan until it is very hot. Reduce heat to medium-high, and heat oil. Add lamb and onion, and saute until meat is brown on all sides and onion begins to soften.
  • Wash cauliflower, and trim and discard core if using whole cauliflower. Break into bite-size pieces, and add to pan along with cumin, coriander, fennel seeds, turmeric and hot-pepper flakes. Stir to mix thoroughly. Add 1/4 cup water, cover and simmer for 3 or 4 minutes, until cauliflower is almost tender.
  • Add the peas, and cook another minute or two.
  • Wash, dry and chop cilantro.
  • Season with salt and pepper, top with cilantro and serve with the rice.
