Cut the lamb into 4cm chunks, season with salt & pepper.  Melt half the coconut oil in a heavy-based saucepan or Dutch oven.  Cook the lamb in batches until browned on all sides and transfer to the slow cooker.

To the same pan add the rest of the coconut oil, once melted add the onion and cook over medium heat for 5 to 8 minutes, until lightly browned.  Add the curry paste and cook for a minute, stirring frequently.  Mix in the tomatoes, vegetable stock, and bay leaves, and transfer to the slow cooker.  Cover with a lid.  Cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours.

When done discard the bay leaves and mix in the sour cream.  Optionally add the flaked almonds and serve with spinach leaves.
