Ingredients

  • 12 oz. lamb with bone
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 tablespoon red chile powder cayenne pepper
  • 3 cups channa dal yellow split peas, soaked for 4 hours
  • 2 chiles split
  • 1 to mato chopped
  • 1 medium bottle gourd peeled and cut into large pieces
  • 2 tablespoons ginger garlic paste
  • 2 teaspoons cumin seed
  • 2 sprigs curry leaves
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 2 dried red chiles
  • 1 2 " cinnamon stick
  • 3 cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon caraway seed
  • 1/4 teaspoon cardamom seeds
  • 1 tablespoon tamarind paste
  • 1/3 cup boiling water
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • Combine lamb with chile powder, turmeric and salt. Marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Bring 6 cups of water to a boil with the channa dal, chiles, salt and tomato. Bring to a boil. Simmer and cook until peas are tender, about 45 minutes. Puree using an immersion blender. ( I like it a bit chunky but you can puree completely smooth in a food processor or blender if you prefer)
  • Combine the cinnamon, cloves, caraway and cardamom seed in a spice grinder. Grind until you have a fine powder.
  • In a large pot, heat oil. Add cumin seed, onion, dried chiles and curry leaves. Saute until onions are golden. Add ginger garlic paste and lamb. Stir fry for 3-4 minutes. Add masala powder and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil and simmer for 1 hour, until meat is tender.
  • Add bottle gourd and cook for another 10 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, pour the boiling water over the tamarind and let sit for 10 minutes. Strain, pressing all of the liquid out of the tamarind paste and discard the paste.
  • Add tamarind water and pureed dal. Cook for another 5 minutes.
