Ingredients

1 kg lamb shoulder cuts
1 cup onion, finely sliced
3 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
2 cups yogurt
1 cup blanched almonds, skin removed
1 cinnamon stick
2 black cardamoms
3 green cardamoms
1 tsp cumin powder
1 tsp coriander powder
1 tsp turmeric powder
2 tsp red chili powder
Salt to taste
4 tbsp ghee
3 cups water

Method

Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed pan and fry onions until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
Add lamb pieces to the pan and fry until browned. Stir in ginger-garlic paste and cook for 2–3 minutes.
Blend yogurt with half of the almonds to make a smooth paste and add it to the lamb. Stir continuously until the oil separates. Mix in the fried onions.
Reduce the heat, add water, cover, and let the lamb simmer for about an hour or until tender.
Chop the remaining almonds into small pieces and add to the korma for a rich nutty texture. Serve hot with naan, roti, or steamed rice.
