Anjum Anand grew up in London but has also lived and studied in Geneva, Paris and Madrid. After completing a European business degree she decided to develop her interest in Indian cookery and, in particular, to make her native food fresher, lighter and simpler to cook. For more details you can login to www.camping-outdoors-recipes.com. Anjum has worked across the world in innovative restaurants such as Caf? Spice in New York, the Mondrian Hotel in Los Angeles, and the Park Royal Hotel's Indian restaurant in New Delhi, but her real love is delicious and stylish food that is simple enough to cook at home. She challenges fiercely the assertion that Indian food is heavy and difficult to cook and is determined to make 'cooking an Indian' as common as rustling up a stir-fry.



She was one of the first writers to create and write Indian recipes catering for the health-conscious cook and her first book, Indian Every Day: Light, Healthy Indian Food, was published in 2003 and has sold more than 25,000 copies.

The recipe below is from her BBC show 'Indian Food Made Easy'

For the marinade:

150ml/5fl oz Greek-style yoghurt

1/2 small onion, roughly chopped

1 garlic clove, peeled and chopped

2.5cm/1in piece fresh ginger, peeled and chopped

2 tsp each garam masala and ground cumin

1 tsp ground coriander

1/2 tsp ground fennel seeds

1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper

1 Tabs vegetable oil

2 Tabs fresh coriander leaves

1/2 tsp red chili powder, or to taste

2 tsp lemon juice

1 tsp salt, or to taste

For the lamb:

400g/14oz lamb (leg meat is ideal), bones removed, cut into 2cm/1in cubes and pierced with a fork

2 Tabs melted butter, for basting

To serve:

5 ready-made flour tortillas, wrapped in foil and placed in the oven for the last five minutes of cooking

1/2 onion, finely sliced

2 tomatoes, finely sliced

1 Little Gem lettuce, finely sliced

100ml/3 1/2fl oz Green chutney, mixed with 3 tbsp yoghurt, to serve

You'll need ten wooden skewers, soaked in water for half an hour www.apples-recipes.com. 1. Place all the marinade ingredients into a food processor and blend until

Smooth. Pour into a large bowl and stir in the lamb cubes. Mix well and

Leave to marinate in the fridge for as long as possible, preferably

Overnight. Bring back to room temperature an hour before cooking.

2. Preheat the grill to medium. Thread the lamb cubes onto the skewers

Leaving a space between each piece and place under the grill. Cook for

Around 5-6 minutes, turning halfway through cooking, until tender.

Alternatively, cook in an oven preheated to 200C/400F/Gas 6 for eight

Minutes. Baste with the melted butter and cook for another minute or two for

Slightly pink meat, or longer if you want the lamb well done.

3. Divide the lamb pieces into five equal portions and place each portion in

The centre of a warmed tortilla. Top with a handful of the sliced vegetables

and a spoonful of chutney. Roll up and serve.
