Chop the onion, tomato, bell pepper and serrano chili as shown.

In a non-stick stock pot over medium heat; add oil. In about 1 minute add cloves, cardamoms, japanese chili pods, bay leaves and the cinnamon stick.

In about 2 minutes; with a fresh aroma of spices in the oil; add the ginger and garlic paste, chopped serrano pepper, onion and bell pepper. Sauté till onion becomes translucent.

In about 3-5 minutes add tomato, lamb meat and dried cilantro. Keep stirring the ingredients in the stock pot until the mixture starts to water a bit.

Add turmeric powder, cayenne pepper, ground cumin and ground coriander. Stir so that the spices get applied evenly.

In about 5-7 minutes add 2 and 1/2 cups of water and let the meat cook over medium heat until it is tender. Keep stirring occasionally. The dish should be ready in 45-50 minutes.

Once the meat is cooked, add salt and simmer for few minutes. Serve with naan and basmati rice. Enjoy!!
