Ingredients
-
600g Diced Lamb Shoulder

30g Ghee (for dairy free, swap this for Cooking Coconut Oil)
-
100g Shallot
-
400g Chopped Tomatoes
-
Large bunch of Fresh Coriander
-
3-4 Garlic Cloves - crushed or finely chopped
-
1 tsp Fresh Ginger - crushed or finely chopped

Directions
Dice the lamb, place in a bowl and sprinkle with salt
Heat the ghee over a medium heat in a large sauce pan or wok with lid.

Fully combine the spices with the meat and then add the chopped tomatoes.
The combination of spices will create a thick sauce, add a little water 100 - 200ml water and then cover the dish and cook on a low heat for 15 - 20 minutes (depending on the cut of lamb used this may need to be up to 60 minutes)
Remove cover and check the consistency of the sauce. For a thicker sauce increase the heat and allow to cook for 10 - 15 minutes
For extra heat add 1/2 - 1 tsp Chilli Flakes and for the finishing touch top with chopped Coriander.
