  1. To prepare the Lamb Curry, start by cutting the lamb into pieces about 5 centimeters (2 inches) in size. Then melt 50 grams of butter in a large casserole dish.
  2. When the butter is completely melted, add the lamb meat to the pan, browning it on all sides. Once ready, remove it from the heat and set aside.
  3. Take the casserole where you cooked the lamb, add the remaining butter and vegetable oil, and cook over high heat until the butter melts.
  4. Finely chop the onion, add it to the pan and sauté over high heat until softened.
  5. Finely mince the garlic, add it to the pan, sprinkle with ginger, mix carefully and continue cooking for a couple of minutes.
  6. Now add the lamb back to the pan, along with garam masala, mild curry powder, turmeric, coriander, chili, and bay leaf. Mix well and cook for about 5 minutes.
  7. Pour in the tomato puree, whole plain yogurt, and a ladle of hot vegetable broth. Mix well, cover with a lid and cook for about an hour and a half, stirring occasionally.
  8. As cooking progresses, add more hot broth to prevent the sauce from becoming too dry, stirring to combine the ingredients and ensure even cooking.
  9. A few minutes before the end of cooking, add the chopped fresh coriander (cilantro) and cornstarch previously dissolved in a small amount of cold water.
