1 Tbsp (15 mL) finely chopped garlic
1 Tbsp (15 mL) finely chopped ginger
1 Tbsp (15 mL) garam masala
1 Tbsp (15 mL) cumin seeds
1 Tbsp (15 mL) coriander seeds, crushed

Preparation
Heat the oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the onion, garlic, and ginger and cook, stirring regularly, until the onion starts to soften and turn brown, about 4 minutes. Add the garam masala, cumin seeds, coriander seeds, turmeric, and salt and cook for 30 seconds. Add the tomato paste and cook for another 30 seconds. Add the lamb, then brown for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, mango juice, vegetable broth, and green chilies and bring the mixture to a boil. Turn the heat to low, cover the skillet, and simmer, stirring regularly, until the lamb is soft, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Add the mango pieces to the skillet, then turn the heat off. Cover the skillet and let it sit for 10 minutes before serving. Serve with rice and White Radish Salad with Cherry Dressing.
