Heat oil in heavy pan. Add onions and fry until golden brown Add garlic,
ginger and all spices except salt Fry for 5 minutes until fragrant. If
mixture is too dry add a little water. Stir regularly to prevent burning
Add lamb and toss through to coat with onion/spices. Fry further 10
minutes, stirring to prevent burning/sticking Add thawed spinach and mix
thoroughly. Add coconut cream and salt. Stir well. Add curry leaves, bring
to a rapid boil Reduce heat and allow to simmer for at least _1.5_ hours
covered. Remove lid and simmer till sauce reduces, usually 15-30 minutes.

This is an exceptionally hot curry, if you prefer a milder curry reduce by
half the following ingredients: chilli powder and hot paprika.

This recipe also lends itself to substituting chicken for the lamb.
