Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Dice the lamb or beef into bite-sized pieces. Peel and cube the potatoes into small pieces. Finely chop the onion, garlic, and ginger.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Meat

    In a large pot or deep skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they are golden brown.

  2. 3

    Add Spices

    Stir in the cumin seeds, garlic, and ginger, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Then add the coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well.

  3. 4

    Brown the Meat

    Add the diced lamb or beef to the pot. Cook until the meat is browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

  4. 5

    Add Tomato Puree and Water

    Stir in the tomato puree and add water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 30 minutes.

  5. 6

    Add Potatoes

    After 30 minutes, add the cubed potatoes to the pot. Continue to simmer until the potatoes are tender and the meat is cooked through, about 20 more minutes.

  6. 7

    Finish with Garam Masala

    Before serving, stir in the garam masala and adjust the seasoning with salt if necessary.
