Ingredients
- •Lamb Shoulder(1361g)
- •1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
- •3 teaspoons kosher salt
- •Olive oil(30g)
Regular (not extra-virgin) olive oil for high-heat cooking. EVOO for dressings.
- •Yellow Onion
- •Garlic
- •Garam Masala, Ground(10g)
- •Cumin, Ground(10g)
- •Turmeric, Ground(10g)
- •Cinnamon, Ground(4g)
- •Tomato, Canned, Crushed

Instructions
- 1Season the lamb shoulder with the pepper and 2 teaspoons of the salt.
- 2Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once the oil is glistening, working in batches, brown the lamb on all sides, about 15 minutes total. Transfer the lamb to a plate.
- 3To the same pot, add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, until fragrant, 1 minute. Stir in the garam masala, cumin, turmeric, cinnamon, and remaining 1 teaspoon of salt until incorporated. Stir in the tomatoes and chicken stock.
- 4Return the lamb to the pot and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the lamb is very tender, about 1½ to 2 hours. Remove the lid and continue cooking until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 20 minutes. Skim fat off the top if desired.
- 5Serve over rice, if using, and serve with naan, yogurt, and cilantro alongside, if desired.
