De bereidingswijze

Stap voor stap

  1. 1

    Combine the lamb shoulder, lamb lung, chopped yellow onion, turmeric powder, cinnamon powder, black pepper, and salt in a large pot.

    Ongeveer 5 min

    Tip van de kok: Ensure the meat is cut into uniform pieces for even cooking.

  2. 2

    Pour in the water, ensuring the meat is mostly submerged.

    Ongeveer 1 min

  3. 3

    Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the lamb is very tender.

    Ongeveer 1 uur 30 min

    Tip van de kok: Check occasionally to ensure there's enough liquid; add more hot water if needed.

    Remove the cooked lamb and lung from the pot, reserving the cooking liquid.

    Finely mince the cooked lamb and lung using a food processor or by hand until it has a coarse, paste-like consistency.

    Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat.

  7. 7

    Add the minced meat mixture to the hot pan and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until slightly browned and heated through.

    Ongeveer 1 min

    Tip van de kok: You can briefly warm the nan-e beryani if desired.

  10. 10
