Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Add all the ingredients mentioned under “Ingredients” section except coriander leaves and mint leaves to pressure cooker and add 1 cup of water. Pressure cook for 6-8 whistles or until the lamb bones are soft (they should be so soft that you can easily bite with your teeth).

  2. 2

    Once the lamb bones turn soft, turn off the flame and let the steam settle down. Open the lid and add 4 cups of water along with coriander leaves and mint leaves.

  3. 3

    Allow it to boil, and once it starts to boil check for salt. Boil it for 10-15 minutes or till the water is reduced to ¾ consistency by adding green peas, if using. Now broth is ready. Turn off the flame and set aside.

  4. 4

    Meanwhile in a heavy bottom cooking vessel, add oil and when it heats up add cloves and sliced onions. Fry till onions turn nice golden. Now add ginger-garlic paste and fry till raw smell of ginger-garlic disappear.

  5. 5

    Turn off the flame and soon add the broth to the tempering. Cover with lid for 5 minutes (by doing so you will seal the aroma and flavours of tempering).

  6. 6

    Serve hot by garnishing with fried onions, minced coriander and lemon wedges. Your ‘nihari’ is ready to go with roti/phulka/naan/pav.
