Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Marinade

In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, ginger, garlic, salt, and pureed tomatoes. Add the lamb cubes and mix well. Cover and marinate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.

2

Sauté the Onions

In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil or ghee over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onions and sauté until they are golden brown.

3

Cook the Lamb

Add the marinated lamb along with the marinade to the pot. Stir well to combine with the onions. Cook on medium-high heat until the lamb is browned, about 5-7 minutes.

4

Simmer the Curry

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the lamb is tender. Stir occasionally and add water if necessary to prevent sticking.

5

Finish and Serve

Once the lamb is tender, taste and adjust the seasoning with salt. Serve hot with steamed rice or naan.
