Ingredients for 4 servings

1 kg boneless lamb shoulder.
the juice of a lime.
2 tablespoons colombo powder.
3 cloves garlic, minced.
peanut oil.
1 teaspoon espelette pepper.
2 mustard glasses of basmati rice.
salt.

Step-by-step directions

- prepare the marinade: in a bowl mix the lime juice, 3 tbsp oil, colombo powder, minced garlic.
- cut the shoulder pieces into 5 cm cubes and add them to the marinade mixing well (with your hands is perfect).
- let rest for 30 minutes.
- with 2 tbsp oil, brown the shoulder cubes on all sides in a cocotte (being careful to remove the garlic pieces that would surely burn).
- add the marinade, cover with water to the level, salt.
- bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat.
- after 20 minutes add the rice making sure the grains are submerged and let cook on low heat and covered for 20 additional minutes stirring 2 or 3 times. normally the rice should absorb all the liquid, so keep an eye on it.
- sprinkle with coriander leaves and serve hot with a chilled rosé, that's nice.
