| 1. Trim the meat of fat, and cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes. | 2. Add yoghurt and turmeric, mix thoroughly and marinate for 4-6 hours or overnight in the fridge. | 3. Roast the poppy seeds in a dry pan over gentle heat until they are a shade darker. | 4. Cool. | 5. Place the ginger, garlic and green chillies in a blender or processor. | 6. Add 1 onion (from the specified amount), roughly chopped to the blender. | 7. Pulse until fairly smooth. | 8. Chop the remaining onions finely. | 9. Melt the butter or ghee over medium heat and fry the onions until golden brown. | 10. This will take 10 to 12 minutes. | 11. Adjust the heat to low and add the chilli powder (if using), paprika, cumin and half a teaspoon of the garam masala (from the specified amount). | 12. Now add the liquidised ingredients and fry for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring frequently. | 13. If the spices begin to stick during this time, sprinkle about a tablespoon of water at a time and as necessary. | 14. Add the meat mix, and adjust heat to medium high. | 15. Fry for 4 to 5 minutes stirring constantly. | 16. Add the tomato puree, salt and water, stir and mix, bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 45 minutes or until the meat is tender. | 17. Stir occasionally during the first half of cooking, but more frequently towards the end to ensure that the thickened gravy does not catch on the bottom of the pan. | 18. Grind the poppy seeds, and add to the curry along with the creamed coconut (cut into small pieces). | 19. Stir until the coconut dissolves, cover and simmer for 15 minutes. | 20. Stir in the cilantro leaves and the remaining garam masala and serve. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
