In our household, like in many desi houses, curries are virtually a daily dinner, and among the many curry recipes available, lamb or mutton curry is one of the most well-liked.

For lamb curries or chopped lamb stew, boneless lamb shoulder is ideal. The recipe tastes great when accompanied by raita, Indian cucumber salad, and steamed basmati rice. If the gravy is thickened, it also goes nicely with recently prepared chapattis.

The trick is to cook the lamb's harder pieces slowly. Young lambs get plenty of movement, so their shanks and shoulders have meat that is far tastier than, for example, a dainty lamb chop. However, this activity also renders the meat tough, necessitating a longer cooking time to soften the connective tissue and render the meat tender.

The lamb stews that take an hour to prepare? Chewy. Getting the meat to the point where it is falling off the bone tender takes at least 1.5 to 2 hours. Using a pressure cooker will reduce the cooking time in half.
