Ingredients
¼ cup white wine vinegar
2 tbsp caster sugar
1 long red chilli, halved lengthwise
1 red onion, thinly sliced
¼ small pineapple, peeled and sliced
1 carrot, thinly sliced
1 tbsp vegetable oil
500g lamb mince
2 tbsp grated ginger
4 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tbsp garam masala
2 Roma tomato, chopped
¼ cup coconut milk
½ cup chopped coriander leaves
4 soft white rolls
Method
Step 1
To make the quick pickle, combine the vinegar, sugar, chilli, and 2 tablespoons of water in a small saucepan. Place over high heat and bring to a simmer. Place the onion, pineapple and carrot in a heatproof bowl. Pour the hot vinegar over the onion mixture, season with salt and set aside to cool.
Step 2
Heat the oil in a large frypan over high heat. Cook the lamb mince for 6 minutes, or until browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Drain off any excess fat. Add the ginger, garlic, garam masala and tomato. Season well and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the tomatoes are tender, then stir in the coconut milk.
Step 3
Sprinkle the lamb with coriander leaves and serve immediately with the pickles and rolls.
