- 2 tbsp ginger paste
- 2 cups tomatoes chopped (or 14 oz can chopped)
- 1 cinnamon stick (3 inches long) or 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon powder
- 2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp Red Chile Powder (mirchi powder)
- 1 tsp Turmeric
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1/2 tsp garam masala

- 1 1/2 cups split chickpea lentils (chana dal, See Note 1)
- 1/4 cup cilantro chopped
- 8 mint leaves chopped
Instructions
- Set the Instant Pot to the Saute setting and heat the oil. When oil is hot, add onions and saute until browned and slightly crispy, about 10 minutes.
- Add garlic, ginger, tomatoes and spices. Stir to combine and cook another 5 minutes. Add 3 cups of water, the lamb and lentils and stir again. Close and seal the pressure cooker lid, Change to the Meat/Stew setting and adjust time to 25 minutes, or manually set it to cook for 25 minutes at high pressure.
- When cook time is up, perform a quick release of pressure and open the pot. Remove and discard the cinnamon stick. Stir the stew to combine, then taste and season with salt if needed (See Note 2).
- Garnish with chopped cilantro, mint, and lemon slices (optional). Serve hot with steamed rice and warm naan.
Notes
- Red lentils may be substituted for the split chickpea lentils.
- If stew is too thick, thin with milk or water to desired consistency.
