Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

In a bowl, combine all Marinade ingredients. Add the Lamb and coat well. Marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight in the refrigerator.
Heat the Vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped Onion and sauté until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the Ginger-garlic paste and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
Stir in Garam masala, Turmeric powder, Kashmiri chili powder, Cumin powder, and Coriander powder. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
Add the Crushed tomatoes and Water or stock. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low.
Add the marinated Lamb to the pot. Stir well to combine.
Cover the pot and simmer for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the Lamb is very tender and falls apart easily. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Season with Salt and Sugar to taste.
Garnish with fresh Cilantro before serving.
Serve hot with rice or naan bread.
