Spicy Lamb Vindaloo
×
Ingredients
- 2 pounds lamb shoulder, cubed
- 2 medium onions, finely chopped
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 inches fresh ginger, minced
- 2 green chilies, slit
- 2 teaspoons coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 2 teaspoons red chili powder
- 1/2 cup malt vinegar
- Salt to taste
- 3 tablespoons oil
- Fresh cilantro, chopped for garnish
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the cubed lamb with vinegar, garlic, ginger, red chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, and salt. Mix well and marinate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.
- Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until golden brown.
- Add the marinated lamb along with the marinade into the pot. Cook on medium-high heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Reduce the heat to low, add the slit green chilies, and cover the pot. Let it cook for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally until the lamb is tender.
- If the mixture becomes too dry, add a little water to maintain a sauce-like consistency.
- Once the lamb is tender, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Cook uncovered for an additional 10-15 minutes to thicken the sauce.
- Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro before serving.
- Serve hot with steamed rice or naan.
