1. Heat the oil in a large pan, then stir-fry the lamb until it
starts to brown. Add the pepper and continue frying until it starts
to soften.

2. Stir in the chilli and ginger, cook for 2 mins, then tip in the
rice and chickpeas. Sprinkle over 3 tbsp water, then toss everything
together until heated through. Stir in the coriander and serve as it
is or with raita – either shop-bought or made by mixing plain yogurt
with grated cucumber and mint.

TIP: If you prefer to use basmati rice, tip half a mug of rice into
a pan with a mug of water. Bring to a boil, then cover and cook for
8 mins until tender. You could also fry 1 tbsp korma curry paste
with the chilli and ginger.
