This recipe created especially for Casa M Spice Co®
This Instant Pot Lamb Curry is a delicious spicy blend of seasonings, garlic, fresh ginger, tomatoes, carrots and zucchini and lamb. Lamb is one of those meats that not everyone knows how to fix but it’s super easy with Casa M’s Good Shepherd Lamb Seasoning and the Instant Pot. Not sure what spices to use for lamb stew? Use the Good Shepherd! They take out the guess work!
Why make Lamb Curry in the Instant Pot?
This 6 qt. Instant Pot (paid link) is a perfect way to cook lamb curry. Lamb takes a long time to become tender. On the stove it can take 2 hours or more until the meat falls apart. But by using the pressure in the Instant Pot, you can cook the lamb curry in less than 40 minutes.
Is this Lamb Curry spicy?
When experimenting and creating this recipe, I originally made it with 3 tablespoons of Good Shepherd and 2 tablespoons of the Chain Reaction Spice. It came out nice and very spicy. So if you like it that way then add a little more spice. However, if you like it on the slightly spicy side just stick to the recipe.

How to make Instant Pot Lamb Curry in Pictures:
Cut lamb into bite sized pieces. This is a boneless lamb roast.
In a bowl, combine lamb, garlic, lime juice, fresh ginger, salt, pepper, Chain Reaction Spice (paid link) , Good Shepherd spice (paid link), chile and pepper.
Marinate at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours in the refrigerator. You can use more or less of the spice depending on your tastes.
Add 2 tablespoons of butter to Instant Pot. Press, “Sauté,” and heat until hot. For this recipe I like to use butter as it imparts a nice flavor. Because this recipe isn’t high in calories, I feel butter is a great addition.
Add onions and brown for 5 minutes. Add chopped lamb and brown for about 5 minutes or until browned.
Add Rotel and carrots.
Add in yogurt, 1 spoonful at a time and stir well to incorporate.
Pressure cook for 20 minutes. Allow for Instant Pot to naturally release or if you don’t have time, allow at least 15 minutes before you release the pressure.
After pressure is released, add zucchini and cilantro and stir well.
Serve over rice and garnish with more cilantro.
