Ingredients
- Meat (lamb/beef) 2 lbs; cut into roughly 2-4 inch pieces with bones
- Squash 1, medium, slit lengthwise then slice; 1 cm thickness
- Onions 1, normal sized, sliced
- Tomatoes 1/2, medium, chopped

- Garam Masala 0.5 tsp
- Garlic Paste 2 tsp
- Ginger Paste 2 tsp
- Coriander Leaves 1.25 cups, chopped
- Green Chillies 6, 7
Cooking Directions
Add 3 cups of water in a pot. Add the meat, onions, all the spices (except for garam masala) and the garlic ginger pastes (add 1.5 spoons each).
Let it cook until the water has dried and the meat is almost tender.
If you''re using lamb, less water would do.
Once the water has dried and the meat almost cooked, add 5, 6 tbsp cooking oil and fry the meat. After 3, 4 minutes, add the remaining ginger garlic pastes. After a minute or so, add the tomatoes and cook until the tomatoes have formed a paste. All on medium heat.
Add the squash and mix it well with everything. Stir fry for 5-10 minutes over medium heat.
Add the green chillies and 2 glasses of water. Cover and cook over medium heat for 20, 25 minutes, until the squash is tender.
Add the coriander leaves and finish with half a tsp of garam masala.
Serve with naan or roti. Boiled rice would do too.
