Leftover Lamb Curry - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
2 -3 cups cubed cooked lamb
1 onion
1 apple, peeled and cored
1 stalk celery
2 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons curry powder
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup chicken stock
1/2 - 1 cup chopped canned tomato
salt and pepper

Preparation

Using a food processor (if you have one), finely chop the onion, apple, celery and garlic.
Melt the butter in a skillet and cook the vegetables until softened but not browned.
Stir in the curry powder and thyme; cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
Stir in the chicken stock and tomatoes; simmer for two minutes.
Season with salt and pepper; add more curry powder if desired.
For a smooth sauce, puree in the food processor and pour back into the skillet.
Add the lamb to the skillet; cover and simmer until the lamb is heated through, about 10 minutes, adding a little more stock if the sauce is too thick.
Serve over rice.
