Instructions
1. In a mixing bowl, combine yogurt, garlic, ginger, lime juice, cumin, coriander, turmeric, and salt. Mix well to create a marinade.

8. Add the heavy cream, white wine (or water), cayenne pepper, fenugreek leaves, and honey. Stir well to combine.
9. Simmer the sauce for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.

11. To serve, plate the lamb popsicles and drizzle the fenugreek cream curry sauce over or serve it on the side for dipping.
