Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 1/2 lb boneless lamb leg, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
Salt as needed
Ground white pepper as needed
1 1/2 cups plain yogurt
2 tbsp minced ginger root
1 tbsp minced garlic
2 tsp ground cardamom
12 oz cashew nuts
1/4 cup ghee (see tips, below) or canola oil
3 cups small-dice yellow onion
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground cardamom
1 tsp ground fennel
2 tbsp ground coriander
6 Thai bird chiles, chopped, or to taste
1/3 cup chopped cilantro stems
1 cup heavy cream
Salt to taste
1/2 cup chopped cilantro leaves
1 cup pan-roasted cashews (see, tips below)

Steps:

  • 1. Trim the lamb and cut it into large pieces. Season with salt and pepper and put in a bowl. Add the yogurt, 1 tbsp ginger, the garlic, and cardamom. Stir or toss until the ingredients are evenly distributed and the lamb is coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 3 hours.
  • 2. Put the cashews in a small bowl and add enough hot water to cover them. Let the cashews soak for 30 minutes and then drain. Grind the drained cashews to a coarse paste in a food processor. Set aside.
  • 3. Heat the ghee or oil in a casserole or Dutch oven over medium heat until it shimmers. Add the onion and sauté until transparent, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the cumin, cardamom, fennel, the remaining ginger, and the coriander. Cook, stirring often until aromatic, about 2 minutes. Add the chiles, cilantro stems, and cashew paste and stir well to be sure that nothing is sticking. Sauté, stirring frequently and adding water a tablespoon at a time if necessary, until the mixture is very aromatic, about 2 minutes.
  • 4. Add the lamb and the yogurt marinade, increase the heat, and stir until the pieces are evenly coated. Once the meat's juices begin to flow, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer very slowly, stirring occasionally, until the meat is nearly tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • 5. Add the cream and continue to simmer until the curry is flavorful and thickened and the lamb is tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Season to taste with additional salt, pepper, or chopped bird chile. Serve garnished with the cilantro leaves and cashews.

This lamb korma was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I'll definitely make it again, but I'll use less chili powder next time.

This lamb korma is a great way to use up leftover lamb. I made it with some leftover roast lamb, and it turned out delicious. The sauce was rich and flavorful, and the lamb was tender and juicy.

I'm not a big fan of lamb, but I really enjoyed this dish. The korma sauce was so flavorful, and it really masked the lamb taste.

This lamb korma was good, but it wasn't as good as I was hoping for. The meat was a little dry, and the sauce was a little too sweet for my taste.

I was really disappointed with this recipe. The lamb was tough, and the sauce was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I made this lamb korma in my slow cooker, and it turned out perfectly. The meat was fall-apart tender, and the sauce was thick and flavorful. I served it over basmati rice, and it was a delicious meal.

I've tried many lamb korma recipes, but this one is by far the best. The yogurt marinade really tenderizes the meat, and the spices give it a perfect flavor.
