Curried Lamb Neck recipe by Jacques Borman.

Ingredients

1 kg lamb neck, cut into slices 
olive oil 
1 medium onion, chopped 
15 ml medium-hot curry powder 
15 ml cake flour 
5 ml salt 
2 whole cloves 
125 ml fruit chutney
 60 ml freshly squeezed lemon juice 
250 ml hot beef stock 
1 green apple, cut into wedges 
1 pineapple, peeled and cubed 
1 banana, sliced 

Recipe

Serves 6

In a large, heavy-based pot with a lid ('I use our cast-iron pot on an open fire'), brown the meat in a little olive oil. Add the onion and curry powder and saute for about 3 minutes. Add the flour, salt, cloves, and chutney. Combine the lemon juice with the beef stock (so it's preheated) and add to the meat. Put the lid on and simmer for about 1 ½hours, or until the meat is tender. Add the apple, pineapple, and banana about 20 minutes before serving.
