Kori's Tips
- Don't miss all of our helpful hints, substitution ideas, cooking tips, and other delicious recipes that can be found in our post. Check it out!
- SUBSTITUTIONS: Substitute chicken, pork, ground beef, ground turkey, or fish for the ground lamb in this flavorful curry dish. To make it spicier, purchase a more intense curry powder like phaal or vindaloo. As these two curry powders are the hottest, if your dish is already too spicy, start by cutting your curry powder by half and season to taste.
- TOP TIPS: Watch your heat when cooking this dish. This is a quick saute dish and your ingredients can burn quickly. Continue to stir coconut milk so it doesn't scorch. Make sure to use frozen peas, as canned peas can cook down too much and get mushy.
- SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Serve with a side of naan and garnish with plain yogurt, freshly chopped cilantro, or thinly sliced green onions. Make it a meal and serve over basmati rice, riced cauliflower, or cubed boiled potatoes!
