How to Make Madrasi Gosht Chopped Lamb

  1. In a large bowl, combine the chopped lamb with salt, ground coriander, cumin, cayenne pepper, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the lamb evenly.
  2. Let the marinated lamb rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  4. Add mustard seeds and immediately cover the pan to prevent splattering. Cook until the seeds begin to pop (about 30 seconds).
  5. Add the chopped onion and grated ginger to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is lightly browned (about 5-7 minutes).
  6. Add the marinated lamb to the skillet and stir to combine with the onion mixture. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to brown the lamb slightly.
  7. Pour in 1/2 cup of water. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  8. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and simmer for 30-45 minutes, or until the lamb is extremely tender and easily pierced with a fork. Do not stir during simmering.
  9. Check the sauce consistency. If it's too thin, increase the heat slightly and cook uncovered until it thickens to your desired consistency.
  10. Once the lamb is tender and the sauce has thickened, remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice.
  11. Garnish with fresh chopped coriander leaves.
  12. Serve hot with rice or naan bread.
