method
1. Melt the ghee or butter in a large saucepan. Add the onions and garlic and fry until they are golden brown. Stir in the ginger and chillis and fry for 4 minutes. Stir in the turmeric, coriander, chilli powder, cumin, cardamom and cloves and fry for 6 minutes, stirring frequently. Add a spoonful or two of water if the mixture becomes too dry.
2. Add the meat cubes and fry until they are evenly browned. Stir in the water, salt and bay leaves, and bring to the boil. When the mixture begins to bubble, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 1/4 hours.
3. Add the potatoes and bring to the boil again. Cover and simmer for a further 45 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through and tender. Taste and add more salt if necessary.
4. Transfer the mixture to a warmed serving dish and serve at once.
