HOW TO MAKE COCONUT LAMB WITH CAULIFLOWER RICE
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
½
- onion, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, sliced
- 600g lamb, cubed
- 4 tomatoes, diced
- 2 turnips, diced
- 800ml coconut milk
- 2 courgettes, halved lengthways and sliced
- 3 tbsp chopped coriander leaves
For the rice:
- 1 small head cauliflower
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Method
- Melt the coconut oil in a heavy-based saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the onions are translucent. Add the lamb and sear before adding the tomatoes, turnips and coconut milk to the pan. Simmer, uncovered, for 45 minutes.

- Add the courgettes to the pan with the lamb and continue to cook for a further 5 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper, top with the coriander and serve over the cauliflower rice.
