Nadiya's lamb bhuna

Nadiya's lamb bhuna

This lamb bhuna features tender pieces of meat simmered in a richly spiced, concentrated sauce. Blitzing the aromatics and spices into a paste before cooking makes preparing this flavourful curry exceptionally quick. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve warm alongside steamed rice or flatbread.
