👨🍳 Instructies
- 1
Wash the lamb thoroughly under cold running water. If the lamb is very salty, you may need to boil it in water for about 10 minutes, then drain and rinse again to remove excess salt.

Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pot and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Stir in the masala curry powder, cumin powder, and black pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the spices are fragrant.

Add the lamb cubes to the pot and brown them on all sides.

Add the chopped hot pepper, stock cubes, and water. Stir well, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.

Bring the curry to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for at least 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the lamb is very tender.
