Lamb Curry:

**Marinate lamb with yoghurt and crushed green chillies + salt overnight in the fridge. Next day, in a pot, heat some oil, and start frying two thinly sliced onions …

when browned , add in the ginger garlic paste, one tsp each … and then the lamb.
Keep the flame medium-high and let it bhuno for at least 20-25 minutes .. if it sticks to the pan, give it a splash ofwater and continue bhuno’ing.

then add two to three tomatoes ( you can blend them in the blender ) and let it be on medium flame for 5 minutes … finally tip this entire stuff in the pressure cooker and leave it on for 30 minutes …

The meat will become super tender .. the gravy will become concentrated and the oil will be floating on top, which you can spoon out if you re health conscious.

Garnish with corriander and some more green chilli if you like it spicy :wink:
