Curries are hands down one of my favorite foods. The warming spices, the creamy coconut milk, and the incredible flavors when they combine with delicious meat and vegetables makes for one of the most satisfying meals in my book. Our ground lamb brings rich flavor to blend with the garam masala, turmeric and fennel seeds that give this curry its Indian flair. It’s delicious all by itself or served over fragrant basmati or jasmine rice. Warm naan served on the side for dipping would be delightful as well.

I used sweet potato for this recipe, but you could add in whatever vegetables you prefer. Make sure to use a can of full fat coconut milk for that wonderful creaminess, the stuff in a carton won’t yield the same results. I added in some bone broth in place of water because I had it on hand. Water by itself will work just fine, but the added richness the bone broth contributed was extra satisfying.

The Best Tasting & Most Ethically Sourced Lamb

Our lamb is raised on the North Island of New Zealand, in the incredibly beautiful foothills of Mount Ruapehu. The lambs are born and live their lives freely roaming the lush green landscape. These animals are raised by the Maori people native to New Zealand, and have been bred for generations for extraordinary taste and quality. They graze on verdant green grass rich with nutrients and are never given any type of antibiotics or growth hormones.

Why We Choose Lamb Raised In New Zealand

Lambs in New Zealand graze on some of the world’s most lush and nutrient rich pastures. The country enjoys a unique, subtropical climate that encourages animals and plants alike to flourish. New Zealand has some of the best conditions in the world for raising lamb, which might explain why their population outnumbers humans. Cultural traditions in New Zealand make it the industry standard to raise meat humanely and naturally. New Zealand lamb is grass fed throughout its life, unlike American lamb which is often grain finished to encourage larger size and higher body fat percentage. New Zealand lambs are smaller in size, because they were allowed to grow and develop the way nature intended.
