    Lamb with Green Peppers

    I'm almost embarrassed to say what I'm going to say: I LOVE winter! Yes, I really, really, do. I love everything about it: the snow covered roof tops, cashmere sweaters and scarfs, hot chocolate dunked biscotti, Hubby Dear moaning while scraping ice off his windshield... Okay, scratch that, maybe I don't truly enjoy watching him do that, but it's just a part of the season I've come to reckon with, like baking cookies. Yes, quite like that, except not so rewarding. Well, you get what I mean!

    Recipe for Lamb with Green Peppers taken from www.hookedonheat.com. Visit site for detailed recipe.

    The reason for my embarrassment is because I seem to invite such odd looks from people when I say it. They all look at me in a 'are-you-serious-or-just-plain-crazy' kinda way. But I beg to differ! I mean, wouldn't you prefer engulfing yourself in soft warm fabrics and eating rich stews as opposed to sweating through the day? I do at least.

    Which brings me back to my favourite season: the Holidays! With the lighting of the city Christmas tree last weekend in Toronto, the official holiday season has begun. The lights have gone up, and huge cuddly Santas can be seen around town taking letters from little kids. Which also means, it's about time I get into my Holiday skin. And to kick things off, I thought, what better than to start here. Yes, right here! On this blog. The one place I seem to spend most of my waking time at.

    So I gathered all my little elves, in my case that would simply mean my brain cells, and put together a fabulous treat for you all. There will be some wonderful new features on the blog, a fantabulous Holiday Gift Guide for food lovers of all kinds, and a bunch of bewitching prizes to be won! And need I mention, a load of delicious holiday recipes to lure your friends and family with. So watch this space in the coming week when I'll dig into my goody bag and throw a celebration your way. Until then, there's always lamb...

    LAMB WITH GREEN PEPPERS
    Prep time: 10 min | Cooking time: 45 min | Serves: 4

    Ingredients:

    2 lbs boneless lamb, cut into 1-inch cubes
    1 large onion, finely sliced
    1 green pepper, chopped
    1 cup plain yogurt
    1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste
    1 tablespoon tomato paste
    1 teaspoon red chili powder
    1 tablespoon coriander powder
    1 teaspoon garam masala powder
    1 teaspoon nigella seeds
    1 teaspoon cumin seeds
    2 tablespoon cooking oil
    fresh coriander leaves, chopped for garnish
    water, as needed
    salt, to taste

    Directions:

    Marinate lamb for at least an hour in a blend of yogurt and ginger-garlic paste.

    Heat oil in a deep pan and add nigella and cumin seeds. Once they start to sizzle, add in sliced onions and fry till lightly browned.

    Stir in spices and tomato paste, and add in the marinated lamb along with the yogurt.

    Cook covered on low heat for 35-40 minutes till lamb is tender, adding water in between if it starts to dry up and stick to the pan. Season with salt and add in chopped peppers, letting it cook for another 5-10 minutes.

    Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve warm.

      Meena,
      I love your website! I just discovered it in my search for delictable food recipes and it's one of my favorite sites!

      Have you tried this recipe with any other meats (pork, beef?) Although I love lamb, my husband is not to keen on lamb, so I wanted to see if this might work with other meats.

      Oh I adore winter, and all the things you've mentioned about it, too. I love the thought of the hot chocolate dunked biscotti, I think I'm going to have to buy some biscotti just so I can dunk it in hot chocolate!!!

      Meena, looks great- You're my one-stop for all the different kinds of meat recipes I've tried out. And not one has flopped -Thanks! If there's ever a vegetarian north-Indian recipe I want to try out - I find it here.
      Btw, basic question - we southies, add ground coconut to our meat gravies, and we are able to refrigerate it for a day or 2 without the gravy going bad. Have never tried yoghurt - will yoghurt make the gravy sour in a day's time, or it stays?

        I make most of my curries yoghurt-based, and they keep quite well in the fridge up to 2-3 days. If needed, they also keep well frozen. The sourness really depends on the kind of yoghurt you use, I prefer to use plain Greek yoghurt.
