Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Lamb

    In a bowl, combine the lamb cubes with vinegar, salt, turmeric, red chili powder, and coriander powder. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Aromatics

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds. Then add the chopped onions and sauté until they are golden brown.

  2. 3

    Add Garlic and Ginger

    Add minced garlic and ginger to the pot. Sauté for another 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

  3. 4

    Cook the Lamb

    Add the marinated lamb to the pot. Sear the lamb on all sides for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. 5

    Add Potatoes and Spices

    Stir in the diced potatoes and slit green chili. Add turmeric and red chili powder, mixing well to coat everything in the spices.

  5. 6

    Simmer

    Pour in enough water to cover the lamb and potatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let it simmer for about 1.5 hours, or until the lamb is tender and the potatoes are cooked through.

  6. 7

    Final Adjustments

    Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt or vinegar if needed. Cook for an additional 10 minutes uncovered to thicken the sauce.
