Preparation
Recipe by: Joel.Ehrlich@salata.com (Joel Ehrlich) TO PREPARE COCONUT
MILK: Remove the shell and the brown inner skin from the meat of a
fully ripe coconut. Chop the meat (NOTE: you may substitute 1 cup of
packaged shredded coconut for the chopped coconut meat). Combine the
chopped coconut meat with one cup of scalded whole milk. Let stand
for 20 minutes. Remove bones and fat from the lamb. Cut the meat into
1" cubes. Melt half the butter in a large, heavy pan. Add the onion.
Cook until tender (about 5 minutes). Use a slotted spoon to remove
the onion. Set aside. Add the remaining butter to the pan. Brown the
lamb cubes on all sides. Return the onion to the pan. Add the ginger,
sugar, pepper, salt, curry powder, mint and milk. Mix well. Cover.
Simmer over low heat for 1 hour. Add the coconut milk and grated
coconut. Cover. Cook for 5 minutes. Gradually stir in the lime juice.
Slowly blend in the cream. Cook over low heat (DON'T LET IT BOIL !)
until the lamb is tender (10-15 minutes). Serve over hot, fluffy rice.

Food Tips of the Week
Advice on losing weight
Make sure that you drink enough fluids. Sometimes at some stage in a hectic work day, you feel you need food when in truth you may need a refreshing glass of water or cranberry juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are somewhat similar, but one of them ends in weight increase and the other one leads to no damage.
Some low carb diet pointers:
* Make reduced carbohydrate breadcrumbs for deep fried or oven baked foods.
Although you can buy reduced carb breadcrumbs, you can make them yourself by simply using reduced carb bread. All you have to do is simply toast the low carb bread in a gas or electric oven on a cookie sheet. Once it is hard, whizz it in your food mill. To store, keep in a tupperware jar or container.
* Know what is in your food
Don't trust food packaging that boasts to be 'low carb' - check the real nutritional information on the back of the package. A good number of are only slightly less and in some instances still greater than a competitors normal brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' doesn't always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are identical.
