Lamb Jalfrezi

Lamb jalfrezi

Pretty spicy (although of course the amount of chili powder can be adjusted to taste)

Ingredients

  • 1 kg. lamb, clean and cut in cubes
  • 2-3 teaspoons of salt
  • 5 teaspoons red chili powder
  • 4 tablespoons ghee
  • 3 large onions, chopped
  • 4 cloves of garlic, grated or chopped finely
  • 15 cm. ginger, peeled and grated
  • 2-3 large tomatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 4 teaspoons ground coriander
  • 4 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 5 teaspoons ground turmeric
  • 1/2 cup of chopped coriander leaves
  • some onion rings, red pepper, bell pepper

Preparation

  • Mix the lamb with chili powder and salt and leave to marinate a bit.
  • Heat the ghee on a medium flame and fry the onions golden yellow.
  • Lower the flame. Add garlic and ginger and fry until the oil seperates.
  • Add tomatoes, coriander powder, cumin, turmeric and coriander leaf and cook until the tomatoes are mushy. Stir regularly.
  • Add lamb and cover. Optionally add some water. Leave until the lamb is cooked and tender (this will take a while!).
  • Serve with some fried onion, red pepper cut in pieces, and fresh lemon wedges
