Ingredients: 1 lb bone-in lamb stew meat, trimmed of excess fat 2 tbsp oil (vegetable or mustard oil works well) 1 large onion, finely chopped 4 garlic cloves, minced 1-inch piece ginger, minced 2 medium tomatoes, chopped (or 1 cup canned diced tomatoes) 2 tbsp white vinegar 1 tbsp tomato paste (optional, for richer flavor) 1-2 cups water or broth Spices: 2 tsp cumin seeds 1 cinnamon stick (or 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon) 2 tsp ground coriander 1 tsp ground turmeric 1-2 tsp chili powder (adjust to your spice level) 1 tsp paprika (optional, for color) 1-2 tsp garam masala 1/2 tsp ground cardamom (optional) 1/2 tsp ground cloves (optional) Instructions: Marinate the Lamb: Mix the lamb with 1 tbsp vinegar, 1 tsp turmeric, and a pinch of salt. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours in the fridge). Toast the Spices: Heat oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and cinnamon stick, cooking until aromatic (30 seconds). Cook the Base: Add the onions and sauté until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in garlic and ginger, cooking for another 1-2 minutes. Add Spices & Tomatoes: Mix in ground coriander, chili powder, paprika, and remaining turmeric. Cook for 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes and tomato paste. Cook until the tomatoes break down and the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Sear the Lamb: Add the marinated lamb and cook, stirring, until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Simmer: Pour in the remaining vinegar and enough water or broth to just cover the lamb. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 1-1.5 hours, stirring occasionally, until the lamb is tender and the sauce has thickened. Finish: Stir in garam masala and simmer uncovered for another 5-10 minutes. Adjust seasoning with salt and more vinegar if needed for a tangy finish. Serve: Serve hot with steamed basmati rice, naan, or parathas.
