  • 2 teaspoons low FODMAP curry powder, such as Frontier Coop brand
  • 1/2 teaspoon garam masala, such as Simply Organics brand

Preparation:

  1. Heat a large skillet over low-medium heat, and add oil. When oil is shimmering, add ginger, leeks and scallions and sauté for a few minutes until leeks and scallions soften. Add curry powder, garam masala, turmeric and cayenne (more or less to taste) and stir for about 30 seconds to bloom spices in the mixture.
  2. Add lamb and stir to coat. If lamb is raw, continue to stir and cook until lamb is beginning to cook through, about 5 minutes. If lamb is already cooked, simply toss to coat.
