Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

2 ea 1" cubes of ginger chopped 2 ea Medium onions
8 ea Cloves of garlic 1 t Ground coriander
1 1/2 c Beef broth 2 t Ground black cumin
10 T Vegetable oil 4 t Red paprika
2 lb Lamb or beef stew meat 1/2 t Cayenne pepper
10 ea Whole black cardamoms 1 1/4 t Salt
2 ea Bay leaves 6 T Plain yogurt
6 ea Whole cloves 1/4 t Garam masala
10 ea Whole peppercorns 1 x Black pepper
1 ea 1" stick cinnamon

Put the ginger, garlic, and 4 tablespoons water in blender. Blend
well until you have a smooth paste. Heat the oil in a wok to medium
high heat. Brown the meat cubes in several batches and set to one
side. Put the cardamom, bay leaves, cloves,
peppercorns, and cinnamon into the same hot oil.
Stir once and wait until the cloves swell and the bay leaves begin
to take on color. Now put in the onions. Stir and fry for about 5
minutes or until
the onions turn a medium brown color. Put in the ginger garlic
paste and stir for 30 seconds. Add the fried meat cubes and juices.
Stir for 30 seconds.
Now put in 1/6 of the yoghurt. Stir and fry for 30 seconds or
until the yoghurt is well blended.
Add the remaining yoghurt, a tablespoon at a time, in the same
way. Stir and fry for another 3-4 minutes. Now add the rest of the
broth (a little more for beef than lamb). Bring the contents of the
pot to a boil, scraping in all browned spices on the sides and bottom
of the pot. Cover, turn heat to low and simmer for about an hour if
lamb and two if beef. Every 10 minutes or so, give the meat a good
stir. When the meat is tender, take off the lid, turn the heat up to
medium and boil away some of the liquid. You should end up with a
tender meat in a thick, reddish brown sauce. All the fat that
collects in the pot may be spooned off the top.
Sprinkle the garam masala and black pepper over the meat before
you serve and mix them in.
