Kashmiri Roghan Josh- Meat Curry

Recipe from Saira Riaz, Cooking Expert on "Daily Cooking" aired on Ary Digital
Ingredients:
Lamb meat, 500 grams
Plain yogurt, 1/2 cup
Salt, 1 tsp
Cumin powder, 1 tsp
Corriander powder, 1 tsp
Red chilli powder, 1/2 tsp
Poppyseed powder (kash-kaash), 1 tsp
Fennel powder (saunf), 1 tsp
Onion, 1 medium ground to a fine paste
Garlic paste, 1 tbsp
Ginger paste, 1 tbsp
Cardamom powder, 1/4 tsp
Bay leaf, 2-3
Cumin seeds, 1/2 tsp
Oil, 1/4 cup
Method:
1. Mix the yogurt with salt, cumin powder, corriander powder, chilli powder, poppyseed and fennel seed powder. Marinate the meat and let it sit overnight in the fridge.
2. Heat the oil and add the bay leaves and cumin seeds, until you can smell their aroma. Add the onion, garlic and ginger pastes. Cook for about 5 minutes.
3. Add the marinated meat and cook on low heat until the meat is tender.  The gravy would have thickened so you can add boiled water if you want a more ‘soupy’ gravy.
4. Before dishing out, mix in the cardamom powder and stir well. Enjoy with rice or piping hot naan bread!
