Ingredients

• 2 pounds Lamb shoulder
• 1 cup White vinegar
• 8 cloves Garlic
• 2 inches Ginger
• 1 tablespoon Cumin seeds
• 1 tablespoon Mustard seeds
• 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
• 1 Cinnamon stick
• 4 Cardamom pods
• 4 Cloves
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 Onion
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 1 cup Water
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro

Directions

Step 1

Cut the lamb shoulder into 1.5-inch cubes and set aside.

Step 2

In a blender, combine garlic, ginger, vinegar, cumin seeds, mustard seeds, turmeric powder, cayenne pepper, and blend until a smooth paste forms.

Step 3

In a large bowl, mix lamb cubes with the spice paste, ensuring the meat is well coated. Marinate for at least an hour, or overnight in the refrigerator for best results.

Step 4

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until they become soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Add cinnamon stick, cardamom pods, and cloves, cooking for 2 more minutes until fragrant.

Step 6

Stir in the tomato paste and cook for an additional 3 minutes, stirring frequently.

Step 7

Add marinated lamb to the pot and brown the meat on all sides for about 5-7 minutes.

Step 8

Pour in the water, add salt and black pepper, and bring the mixture to a simmer.

Step 9

Cover the pot, reduce the heat to low, and let it simmer for about 1 hour, or until the lamb is tender and the sauce has thickened.

Step 10

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Remove the cinnamon stick and cardamom pods before serving.

Step 11

Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and serve hot.
