Cupboard and Freezer Destocking

-
We're hoping to move. It should have been in the next week or so, but as always there are delays. Since April I have been working to reduce the stock in the cupboard and chest freezer. Two months later and I still haven't finished. I don't think we'll have no frozen items, but there are a few more apple crumbles with frozen stewed apple, some more jam and a few more fish meals to go. Destocking the cupboard has been a much slower task. Somehow we had a few kg of different rices; we're almost at the point where all packets are open and in use. A house-moving fruit cake should help to use up a fair amount of the dried fruit in the baking cupboard.

Authenticity and originality not guaranteed. #1 : Lamb and Tomato This one combines rogan josh (lamb, tomato, cardamon, garlic) with dhansak (cumin, lentils). This is not a hot curry, and the initially flavour is sweet from the meat, onions and tomato - but it has a pleasant kick. I made this from left-over roast lamb, but in the past I have made a similar curry with lamb precooked in water with garlic cloves - boil for ~15 minutes. Ingredients 500 g Cooked Lamb 1 Onion 4 or 5 Tomatoes 1 or 2 handfuls of Red Lentils 1 tsp Coriander seeds 1 tsp Cumin seeds 1 tbsp Garam Masala 1 tsp ground Ginger ½ - 1 tsp ground Cayenne Pepper (depending on how hot you want it) 4 Cardamon Pods (crushed a little) Method Slice the onion and fry in plenty of oil (rapeseed works well) for ~20 minutes on a low heat. The aim is to remove moistur...
