LAMB CHILLI FRY

Prep time: 5 mins Cook time: 25 mins Total time: 30 mins

Author: Curry for the Soul

Recipe Type: Ultimate Lamb Dishes

Cuisine: Indian Curries

Serves: 6 serves

Ludicrously delicious Lamb Chilli Fry is one of my family’s favourite dish. Normally, the lamb takes 45-60 minutes to cook well. But I use a pressure cooker for most of my dishes and cooking is like a breeze. Hence, it takes only 15-20 minutes for the lamb to fall off the bones.

Besides using the normal spices, I have used mustard seeds, curry leaves and kasoori methi (dried fenugreek leaves) which takes the lamb take to another level.

Enjoy this fantastic lip-smacking hot & spicy lamb chilli fry.
