Default Main Dish - Mutton / Lamb Curry - Recipe

Ingredients:
  1. 1.5 kg Boned shoulder of lamb
  2. 2 tablespoons Ghee or oil
  3. 2 Large onions, chopped
  4. 4 cloves Garlic, chopped
  5. 1 tablespoon Finely chopped fresh ginger
  6. 2 tablespoons Curry powder
  7. 3 teaspoons Salt
  8. 2 tablespoons Vinegar or lemon juice
  9. 3 Large tomatoes, chopped
  10. 2 Fresh red chilies
  11. 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh mint leaves
  12. 1 teaspoon Garam masala
  13. 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh coriander
Method:
  1. Cut lamb into cubes.
  2. Heat ghee (clarified butter) or oil in a saucepan and gently fry onion, garlic and ginger until soft and golden.
  3. Add curry powder, salt and vinegar, stir thoroughly.
  4. Add lamb and cook, stirring constantly until lamb is coated with the spice mixture.
  5. Add tomato, chili and mint.
  6. Cover and cook over low heat for 1 1/2 hours or until lamb is tender, stirring occasionally.
  7. The tomatoes should provide enough liquid for the meat to cook in but, if necessary, add a little hot water, approximately half cup, just enough to prevent meat from sticking to pan.
  8. Add garam masala and chopped coriander leaves for the last 5 minutes of cooking time.
  9. Serve with rice.
