Hearty meat curry, perfect for a cold and grey evening!
Add oil to a pressure cooker and when hot, fry onions with salt on medium heat until golden brown. Add grated tomatoes, ginger and garlic and fry until you see a film of oil on top. Add the coriander and cumin, turmeric, red chili powder and tomato paste (I omit the red chili powder as my 18-month-old eats the same food as we do). Fry for a further 2 minutes. You can add a little water at this stage (approximately 3-4 tablespoons) if you feel you curry is sticking to the bottom of the pressure cooker.
Add your meat cubes and enough water so that the meat is submerged completely in the water. Pressure cook until the lamb is cooked and soft (mine usually takes about 30-45 minutes as the meat in Dubai is quite tough). You can then add the potatoes and simmer the curry on low heat until the potatoes are cooked through and soft. Turn the heat off and add garam masala and coriander. Serve hot with steamed basmati rice or chapatis.

hi there…as experimental said, 250 gms is about 0.55 lbs. i use a grater (the one used to grate carrots) to grate the tomato. you could also chop the tomatoes. the end results would be the same

lauraang: go to Gogle and type in: 250g to lbs
Google will kindly tell you 250g is a bit more than half a pound (about .55 lbs).

PS I’m sure most people already know this, but I didn’t for a long time: Coriander is cilantro (ground coriander is made from its seeds). So when it calls for coriander as the garnish it means cilantro, not the ground up spice. And cilantro pretty much makes every curry sauce for me, so try it!

About how many ounces/lbs is 250 grams of meat? Also, how do you grate a tomato? It seems like you would just end up juicing it as you put it across the grater. I’ll have to try it. This curry looks great, I’ll have to try it soon!
