Indian Lamb Curry (Rogan Josh)
1½ lbs lamb, cut into chunks
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 inch ginger, grated
2 tbsp ghee (clarified butter)
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp garam masala
1 tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp ground cloves
½ tsp chili powder
½ cup tomato puree
1 cup plain yogurt
1 cup beef or lamb broth
Salt to taste
Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

 

In a large skillet, heat ghee over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté for 5-7 minutes until soft and translucent.
Add the garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
Stir in the cumin, coriander, turmeric, garam masala, cinnamon, cloves, and chili powder. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the spices become fragrant.
Add the lamb chunks to the skillet and sear them on all sides until browned, about 8-10 minutes.
Pour in the tomato puree, yogurt, and broth, stirring well to combine all the ingredients.
Season with salt and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Transfer everything to a slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the lamb is tender and the flavors have melded together.
Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
