2. In a pan, add the blanched lamb, ghee, salt, garlic, green cardamom, and cloves. Mix well. Fry until the lamb is light brown in colour.

3. Add the red chilli water, black cardamom, turmeric powder, cinnamon sticks, and ginger powder. Stir and bring the mixture to the boil. Lower heat, cover the pan and cook until the lamb is tender. Add some water, if necessary. Stir occasionally.
