Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a bowl; mix well. Remove most of the fat from the lamb and cut the lamb into 2 inch cubes. Toss the lamb with the seasoning mix and set aside.

In a 13x9 inch roasting pan , combine the melted butter, 2 1/2 cups of onions, the margarine, 1/4 cup of the jalapeno peppers, the red pepper, ginger, cumin and coriander; mix well. Bake at 350 degrees F on the floor of the ovenuntil the onions are dark brown but not burned, about 30 - 40 minutes. Remove from the oven; stir in the remaining2 cups of onions, the bell peppers, the remaining 1/4 cup of jalapeno peppers, the curry powder and the softened butter, stirring well until well combined. Place in the middle rack of the oven and bake 20 minutes. Remove pan from oven; mix in the lamb, bananas, cream of coconut, pecans and raisins. Return to the oven and bake 2hrs more, stirring every 30 minutes or so. Serve immediately.
