Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground lamb
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 large onion, peeled and coarsely chopped
  • 3 large carrots, peeled and julienned
  • 1 (16 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 medium eggplant, peeled and cubed
  • 12 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder
  • 14 cup brown sugar
  • salt and pepper
  • 12 cup roasted peanuts

Method

  • Brown the lamb in the oil.
  • Add the onion, carrots, crushed tomatoes and eggplant.
  • Stir-fry until the eggplant is tender and the onion is golden.
  • Add the cayenne pepper, curry powder, brown sugar and salt and pepper.
  • Mix well to combine.
  • If necessary, add a little water to get it to the consistency that you like.
  • Just before serving, toss in the roasted peanuts and mix.
  • Serve over basmati rice.
  • If making this ahead, don't add the peanuts, and toss them in just before reheatings.
  • There's nothing as unappetizing and un-Gurulike as soggy peanuts.
