Time 1h20m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon sunflower oil
1 onion, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, crushed
1 inch piece fresh ginger, finely grated
1 kg lean ground lamb
1 small red chile, deseeded and finely chopped
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 ripe tomatoes, chopped
1 tablespoon tomato puree
1 teaspoon tamarind paste
1 1/4 kg floury potatoes, cut into chunks
50 g unsalted butter
2 -3 tablespoons milk
300 ml chicken stock, hot
1/4 cup fresh coriander, chopped

Steps:

Heat oil in large frying pan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic and ginger and cook, stirring 10 minutes until onion is just starting to colour. Add lamb and cook 5 minutes to brown. Tip into a colander and rest to drain excess fat.
Return meat to pan and add chilli, turmeric, coriander and cumin. Cook 1 more minute. Stir in tomato, tomato puree, tamarind and stock. Season and simmer 25 minutes (lamb should still be fairly moist). Stir in fresh coriander.
Transfer meat mixture to an ovenproof dish and set aside. Preheat oven to 200 degrees C, gas mark 6.
For the potato topping, place potatoes in a large pan of salted water, boil, and simmer until tender. Drain, return to pan and mash with a potato masher (I use a potato ricer - no lumps!). Add butter and enough milk to form a spreadable mash.
Spoon potato topping over lamb. Bake in oven 30 minutes until hot and golden.

Time 1h10m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

4 cups leftover mashed potatoes
1/2 to 1 cup hot water
1/2 cup milk
3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons plain yogurt
2 teaspoons ajwain
Salt
3 tablespoons grapeseed oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1 onion, chopped
3 stalks celery, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon garam masala
1 tablespoon Italian mixed herbs (dried basil, dried oregano, dried thyme)
1 pound ground beef
1 cup crushed tomatoes
2 cups cooked brown lentils
1 cup grated mozzarella
2 teaspoons smoked paprika

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Place a large pot over medium-low heat. Add the leftover potatoes and hot water and stir with a wooden spoon until the potatoes begin to soften and get hot, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the milk, butter, yogurt, 1 teaspoon ajwain and a pinch of salt and stir well until the mixture is smooth. Set aside.
Place a large skillet over medium heat and add the oil. When it is hot, add the garlic, ginger and onions, and cook until the onions are soft and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the celery and stir, and then add the garam masala, Italian mixed herbs, the remaining 1 teaspoon ajwain seeds and a pinch of salt, and cook for about 30 seconds. Stir in the ground beef, stir and let it cook through, about 5 minutes. Add the crushed tomatoes and 1/2 cup water, and then stir in the cooked lentils and simmer for 5 minutes. Pour into a 9 by 13-inch baking dish and sprinkle with the mozzarella. Spread the mashed potatoes evenly over the top and sprinkle with the paprika. Bake until it is bubbling and hot, about 30 minutes.
