I was taught this by my husbands sister. It is a traditional bengali style curry.
Step One
Heat the oil slightly and add the cardamon pods, cinamon stick, bay leaves and cloves.
Once the garlic is starting to turn brown add the onions and fry gently until softened.
Add the salt and then add the lamb chops, fry on a high heat until browned off. Add the other spices and keep stirring to prevent the mixture sticking, add slightly more oil if necessary. Continue to cook the spices through for a few minutes. Quarter the potatoes and add to the curry. Add enough water to cover the potatoes and simmmer for 20 minutes or until lamb and potatoes are cooked through. Keep stirring occassionally to prevent curry sticking to pan.
Once cooked remove from heat and stir in fresh coriander - enjoy!
tip - use a heavy based pan. You can reduce the amount of chilli to your taste.
