Shahi Lamb with Carrot Pickle ~ Joojeh Kebabs with Wild Mint Yogurt
Shahi roughly translates as royal or imperial and the word is often used as an umbrella term for dishes that originated in Moghul times such as pasanda or korma. This lamb curry is typically Moghul in style with the use of opulent ingredients such as cashew nuts, butter and lamb which make it worthy of the royal courts. It’s a luxuriously indulgent dish and the smoother you manage to blend your paste, the creamier your resulting sauce will be.
