Place lamb on a slow grill and cook for 25-30 minutes until just past medium rare, roughly 145 degrees on a meat thermometer. Let rest.

When you start the lamb, start the sauce. Puree basil, cilantro, garlic, lemongrass, hot chili, scallions, curry powder, sugar, and lime leaves in food processor.

Slice lamb, arrange on a platter, and serve with sauce.
