best Lamb Curry recipe - Spicy and delicious in every mouthful
If your taste buds crave something spicy and delicious, this is the best dish you can make easily and enjoy to the fullest! The succulent lamb pieces floating in the mouthwatering gravy with their aroma and taste is something that only the lucky ones could get! This recipe gives you all the tips and complete recipe so nothing could possibly go wrong in producing something exactly like the pictures above.
In this recipe, I have first boiled the meat in the pressure cooker along with some oil and spices in order to make the meat very tender. If you do not have a pressure cooker, cook the meat in a pot which will take a little longer but the taste will be the same.
Remember to buy lamb from the butcher and opt for a nice shoulder joint without many bones on the meat. So, let’s get ready to make it!
What you need to make this delicious dish:
| Spring lamb in medium size pieces | 300 g |
| Onion | 1 large or 2 medium |

| Salt to taste | 1 tsp |
| Turmeric | 2 tsp |
| Tomato | 1 large |
| Green chilies | 2 |
| Chili powder | 2 tsp |
| Ginger garlic paste | 2 tbsp |
| Olive oil or any kind of oil | 2 tbsp |
Let’s get started:
