Lamb Turnip Curry / Turnip Kari Kulambu

This is was my second time to cook with Turnip, earlier I have shared a Turnip Stir-fry recipe. The vegetable turnip was new to me and started surfing recipes for turnip, ended up my surfing when I saw that turnip pairs well with Lamb and thought why should not try out turnip lamb combination in Indian style.
Also I you can check out my other lamb and veggie combination Lamb potato curry, Lamb Ridge gourd curry and Lamb with Brinjal curry.
The curry was good with steamed rice and egg, but it will be too good with chapathi or any Indian breads. It has a good taste with wonderful and unique aroma (both turnip and lamb). Let us move on to the recipe.

  1. I was searching for a recipe that I used to make decades ago to refresh my memory. I’m going to adapt your recipe for my Instant Pot. I will use lamb, potato, turnip, and onion (sliced thin and layered) along with the seasonings. My recipe also includes chicken broth. Can’t wait to get started. Thank you.4 stars
