Servings: persons

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 small onion or fat shallot, chopped
1/4 large bell pepper, red or green, diced
1 garlic clove, peeled and chopped
68 approximately 3/4-inch chunks leftover roast lamb cut close to the bone, where meat is rarest
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
1 1/22 tablespoons good Madras curry powder
Salt
Fresh lemon juice to taste
3/41 cup braising liquid (any leftover pan juice, or chicken, lamb, or veal broth)
1 tablespoon shredded unsweetened coconut (optional)
1/2 small tart apple, peeled, seeded, and cut in slim wedges (optional)

1
Heat the oil in a small pan, and saute the onion, pepper, and garlic gently for about 8 minutes, until softened.
2
Add the lamb chunks, fennel seeds, and curry powder.
3
Salt lightly, squeeze several drops of lemon juice over, and pour on the braising liquid.
4
Cover, and cook at a lively simmer for 10 minutes, checking to make sure your liquid isnt reducing too rapidly; if it is, add more braising liquid or water.
5
If you are using the coconut and the apple slices, toss them into the pan for the last 5 minutes of cooking.
6
Taste and correct seasoning, adding more salt and lemon juice as you see fit.
7
The sauce should now be thick and coating the meat.
8
Serve with rice or an Indian bread, and a Cucumber Raita (page 163).
9
If you havent got unsweetened coconut on hand or really tart apples, use instead a small handful of raisins, in which case you may want to increase the lemon juice.
