Step by step
Get ahead
Make up to 2 days ahead; cool, cover and chill. It can also be frozen.
Set a large, heavy-based saucepan over a medium to low heat. Once hot, add the oil, followed by the onions, garlic, ginger and cinnamon. Fry gently for 20 minutes, or until the onions are soft and golden.
- Mix in the spices and cook for 2 minutes, then increase the heat to high and, once the onions are sizzling, add the meat with a pinch of salt and stir until lightly browned. Add the coconut milk. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 1 hour 20 minutes. Stir in the ground almonds and continue to simmer for 30 minutes.
- Allow the meat to rest, off the heat, for 10 minutes. Remove the cinnamon sticks before serving. Garnish with coriander and serve with the saffron and pea pilaff.
