Lamb madras brings together tender lamb and a warm, spice-forward curry that settles into a rich, comforting finish. The curry sauce is bold, aromatic, and deeply satisfying, with a thick red masala that develops more character as it simmers. It pairs naturally with basmati rice or naan and tastes even better the next day as the spices round out and the sauce becomes fuller and more balanced.
