    👨‍🍳 Method
    1. Season the Lamb
    Place the lamb into a bowl and season with:

    1 tsp BlixSam Piets-my-Nou Premium Spice
    Mix well and leave to marinate for 30 minutes, or overnight for the best flavour.
    ---
    2. Build the Curry Base
    Place the butter, onion, garlic, ginger and curry leaves into a large oven-safe dish that fits your air fryer.
    Air fry at 180°C for 8–10 minutes, stirring once, until fragrant and the onions have softened.

    3. Bloom the Spices
    Sprinkle over:
    1 tbsp BlixSam Bazaar Kerrie Premium Spice
    1 tsp BlixSam Piets-my-Nou Premium Spice
    Stir well and air fry for 2 minutes to bloom the spices.

    4. Add the Lamb & Vegetables
    Add the marinated lamb, potatoes and carrots.
    Mix well so everything is coated in the curry mixture.
    Pour over:
    2 cups chicken stock
    Season lightly with salt and freshly ground black pepper if needed.
    ---
    5. Cover & Slow Cook
    Cover the dish tightly with foil.
    Air fry at 180°C for 70–80 minutes, stirring once halfway through.
    If the curry becomes too thick, add a little extra chicken stock.
    ---
    6. Finish
    Remove the foil.
    Increase the temperature to 200°C.
    Air fry for a further 10–15 minutes, allowing the gravy to reduce and the lamb to become beautifully tender.

    7. Serve
    Sprinkle with freshly chopped coriander or parsley.
    Serve with fluffy rice, sambals, warm roti, or enjoy it as a hearty one-dish meal.

    🔥 BlixSam Tip
    Blooming the BlixSam Bazaar Kerrie Premium Spice before adding the stock unlocks its full flavour, while BlixSam Piets-my-Nou Premium Spice adds depth and richness. Cooking covered with foil keeps the lamb tender and allows the potatoes to absorb the aromatic curry gravy.
