Lamb Korma Shahjahani Lamb In Creamy Curry Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• 0. Peel and finely chop ginger. Peel, quarter, and thinly slice onions. Debone, cube, and defat lamb. 1. Heat oil in a 6-quart saucepot. When hot, add cumin seeds (oil should be hot enough to sizzle when seeds are added; test by dropping a couple of seeds in first). When the seeds sizzle, add ginger. Fry for about 15 seconds. 2. Add onions and sauté over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until the onions become slightly brown. 3. Raise to high heat. When the pot becomes very hot, add lamb. Stir and sauté until the lamb is nicely browned and most of the moisture has evaporated. Add turmeric, salt, paprika, chile pepper powder, black pepper powder and coriander powder. Stir for two to three minutes. Turn off the heat and add yogurt (the heat is turned off to prevent yogurt from curdling); mix. Turn the heat back on. 4. Bring the mixture to a boil. Add 1/3 to 1/2 cup of water if there is not enough liquid. Reduce heat, cover partially and simmer over low heat for 25 to 35 minutes, or until lamb becomes tender. At this point, there should be a thin film of oil on the top surface. Add garam Masala and cream. Mix and cover, then turn off the heat and leave it on the stove for about 5 minutes. Sprinkle slivered almonds on top before serving.

Steps:

• Marinate lamb in mixture of ground spices and sour cream for 30 minutes. In a Dutch oven or flameproof casserole over medium-high heat, fry onion in mixture of oil and butter until edges are nicely browned. Add cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, garlic and ginger and continue frying for 1 or 2 minutes until onion turns medium brown. Add marinated lamb to onion mixture and stir over medium to medium-high heat until sour cream disappears and lamb is no longer pink on the outside, about 2 minutes. Stir in crushed fennel seeds, coconut milk, salt, and 3/4 cup water; bring to a boil. Turn heat down and simmer, covered, for 30 minutes. Uncover and simmer for another 20 to 25 minutes to thicken sauce, adding more water if sauce is too thick. At this point the meat and sauce should have darkened somewhat. Stir in lemon juice and remove from heat. Taste and add salt if needed.
