method
1. Marinate the lamb with the turmeric, chilli, cumin, coriander, ginger, garlic, yoghurt and salt and set aside for 3 - 4 hours.
2. Cut three of the onions in half and finely slice them. Chop the remaining onions.
3. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over a medium high heat and fry the sliced onions, stirring occasionally, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and put aside.
4. In the remaining oil add the cardamom, cinnamon and cloves and let them sizzle for 4 - 5 seconds. Add the chopped onion and fry until lightly browned. Add the meat and spices and fry, stirring constantly, for about 5-7 minutes.
5. Cover, lower heat to very low and simmer for about 1 hour until tender. Add two thirds of the fried onions and mix with the meat and cook for another minute.
6. Serve garnished with the remaining onions.
