For the meatballs, combine the minced lamb with half the spices, half the ginger, half the garlic, the coriander and season well. Form walnut-sized meatballs and fry until browned, before setting aside.
In the same pan, fry the 1/2 red onion for 5 minutes then add the remaining spices, garlic and ginger. Fry for several minutes before adding the stock and the browned meatballs. Simmer for 15 minutes.
Stir through the yoghurt and simmer gently for 5 more minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the rice according to packet instructions then stir through the flaked almonds and dill.
In a small bowl combine the remaining 1/2 red onion, mint and coriander and season with salt.
Check the curry for seasoning before serving alongside the rice and salad.
