- Add 3/4 cup /175ml water to the pot.
- Cover, bring to a boil, then simmer on low for 1hr.
- After 1hr, the lamb should be almost cooked and the onions and tomatoes should be very tender.
- Some of the fat from the lamb will have also been released and may be rising to the top at this point.
- Uncover and bring the heat to high.
- Add the oil, then begin to allow the water to dry out - this may take 10-15 minutes depending on how much water there is.
- Stir vigorously and keep the heat to high, stirring and drying out the curry until it is very dry
- Once the curry is very dry, add some water in and stir until the curry comes to a consistency you're happy with.
- Add in the kashmiri red chilli powder/degi mirch (this is purely for colour and doesn't taste of much, so you can add more or less or omit entirely if you wish).
- Let it simmer on a low heat cover for a few minutes.
- Add the chopped coriander, stir in and turn the heat off.
- Your bhuna gosht masala is ready!
