- Preparation: Get fresh lamb shoulders or any cut with bones. Marinate overnight with freshly squeezed lime juice, cracked pepper, dry-roasted and ground spices like cumin, coriander, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves and salt. Tip: When you are confused with what to marinate your meat, remembering the following components will help- Salt (I use soy sauce or garlic salt for steaks); acid(I use freshly squeezed lime juice or white vinegar); aromatics (like ginger, garlic, herbs, and ground spices) and oil (depending on the cuisine).
- Cooking: Thinly slice onions, crush 8-10 cloves of garlic, mince Serrano or green chilies.
- I used Olive oil in this one. Fry the onion, lamb pieces, garlic, and chilies together in a pressure cooker. When the meat is decently browned, add 2 tsp yogurt. Stir. (You can add diced potatoes here, if you want a bit of Bangali-ana. Remember to add salt to potatoes, or they may come out bland)
- Pressure cook it to goodness. Let it sit for a while and it will cook even after you kill the flame. Serve hot with flatbreads or rice.
You can make also chicken or mutton similarly for a light, flavorful curry. But the meat has to be really fresh for this dish. If you want, you can add whole garam masala too.
These are some of my quick notes. Please feel free to suggest changes to the recipes. There is always a better way of doing things, don't be shy if you know it. Kindly report broken links in the comments section.
