Instant Pot Lamb Curry
his is a mildly spiced simple lamb curry that brings out the meat flavour without the spices overpowering it. In this curry no whole or ground garam masala spices are used but just a hint of the green chilli flavor. So easy to make it in the Instant Pot. All you'd be doing is just spending 5 mins of your time sautéeing the onions and the lamb. Then you just have to close the lid and forget it. But don't forget to press the "keep warm" button to have it warm for dinner without overcooking it.
Ingredients
- 1 lb lamb
- 1 tsp ginger garlic paste
- 2 tbs vegetable oil
- 1/2 tsp turmeric
- 2-4 small green chillies
- 1 tsp coriander powder
- 1 large onion
- a sprig of cilantro chopped
Instructions
- Heat oil in the Instant Pot and saute the onions on "sauté less" setting till golden brown.
- Stir in the ginger garlic paste and add turmeric, coriander powder and salt followed by the lamb pieces.
- Sauté well in the masala. Add the green chillies and chopped cilantro.
- Add a cup of water. Cancel the sauté mode. Close the lid, turn the steam release valve to sealing position. Hit the meat/stew button and set the time for 20 mins.
- When you hear the second beep, do a QPR (quick pressure release).
- Open the lid when all the steam is out. The curry will be a little watery.
- Thicken it a little on sauté setting again.
- Garnish with chopped cilantro and enjoy with rice or rotis.
