- 2 lbs lamb shoulder cut into 1-2 inch chunks (You want a little bit of fat on this but be sure to trim it juts a little bit to keep from having a huge pool of fat on top of the gravy, although there should be a thin layer)
- 2 tablespoons or enough to coat the bottom of the pan or dutch oven of avocado oil or macadamia nut oil (I used the avocado oil)
- 1 medium onion
- 8 cloves garlic
- 2 bay leaves
- 10 whole cardamom pods
- 1 stick cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 teaspoon coriander
- 2 teaspoon cumin
- 2 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (reduce to 1/2 teaspoon if your sensitive to spicy dishes. This dish is not that spicy but its about a medium in my opinion)
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 3 medium fresh roma tomatoes blanched and chopped fairly fine but leave it a little chunky. (remember the tomatoes will kind of disintegrate in there so don't get them too small)
- 1/4 cup coconut milk or yogurt (yogurt keeps this dish much more traditional and is probably the best way to go but coconut milk works almost as good too)
