Step 1
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Pat lamb dry, season with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Brown lamb in batches without stirring, ~3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
Step 3
Add onion and potato cubes to the skillet. Cook 4 minutes, stirring, until onion softens and potato edges brown.

Stir in curry powder, cooking 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in coconut milk, scraping up any browned bits.
