Ingredients

2 tbsp olive oil

550g lean lamb, cubed

1 large onion, chopped

1 tsp cumin

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp ground coriander

½ tsp chilli powder

230g can chopped tomatoes

350g pumpkin (or butternut squash) flesh only, cubed

50g sultanas

Method

Pre-heat the oven to 160C/140C Fan/Gas 3. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a frying pan and cook the meat in batches until browned. As each batch is cooked, transfer to a casserole dish. Add the rest of the oil to the pan with the onion and cook until soft.

Add the spices, chilli and tomatoes to the pan and heat until simmering. Transfer to the casserole dish with the pumpkin and stock. Cover and cook in the oven for 1 hour 30 minutes.

Add the sultanas and apricots and cook for another 30 minutes.

Mix the cornflour with a little cold water to make a paste, then stir into the casserole. Return to the oven for 5 minutes to thicken the gravy. Serve with couscous.
