- To make the lamb softer & tenderize, add lamb in a pot, pour in enough water to cover the lamb. Add old ginger slices and add inside to braise together for around 2hours.
- Remove from pot and set aside once done. Reserved some stock for later.
- In a pan, heat up some oil and toss in the cinnamon stick, star anise & clove to bring out the flavour of the spices. Then pour in the blended paste and stir fry until aromatic.
- Add in curry meat powder & garam masala powder mix, stir well.
- Add in tomatoes, Salam Sos Berperisa Tiram & Salam Sos Cili Manis Perisa Thai. Stir to incorporate the sauce paste.
- Add back the braised lamb chunks and coat well. Add some salt and minced onions then continue stirring.
- Pour in the mutton stock from braising the lamb earlier and bring to a boil. Check the meat tenderness occasionally and add some stock to continue simmer if needed.
- Once meat reached the desired tenderness, add in coriander leaves then stir well.
- Serve hot & on the side with some Chapatti.
