Ingredients
The quantities follow this count.
How to cook it
-
Pat the lamb cubes dry and brown them in the oil over medium-high heat in batches, then set them aside.
-
Add the onions to the pot and cook until deeply golden, about 12 minutes, then stir in the garlic, ginger, cinnamon, and bay leaves.
-
Add the Kashmiri chili, fennel, and half the garam masala and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
-
Whisk in the yogurt a spoonful at a time so it does not split, then stir in the tomato puree.
-
Return the lamb with its juices, add the salt and a cup of water, cover, and simmer gently until fork tender, about 1 hour.
-
Stir in the remaining garam masala, adjust the salt, and serve over the basmati rice.
