Once the spices are toasted, add enough water to come halfway up the lamb. Let the lamb simmer, covered, for 40-45 minutes or until tender. If the water evaporates before the lamb is tender, keep adding more bit by bit. Once the lamb is cooked, remove the lid and allow all the water to evaporate. Garnish with crispy curry leaves and coriander leaves.
