- Add the tomatoes, red chili, garlic, and stir until the water from the tomatoes evaporates.
- Pour 4 cups of boiling water and all the spices, salt, and tomato paste to the lamb. Let the mixture come to a boil. Cover and let cook until the lamb is cooked and you should end up with thick gravy.

- PS: If you have a pressure cooker, pour enough water to almost cover the lamb and cook after the first whistle on medium low heat for 20 minutes.
