Preparation
 
To make the masala, combine the cashews, chilies, ginger and the
cold water and blend at high speed for 1 minutes. Add the
cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, garlic, poppy seeds, coriander seeds and
cumin. Blend again until the mixture is completely pulverized. Set
the masala aside. Place the saffron in a small bowl, pour in boiling
water and let soak for at least 10 minutes. In a heavy skillet heat
the ghee over moderate heat until a drop of water flicked into it
sputters instantly. Add the onions and, stirring constantly, fry for
7 or 8 minutes, until soft and golden brown. Stir in the salt and
the masala, then add the yoghurt.
Stirring occasionally, cook over moderate heat until the ghee
lightly films the surface. Add the lamb, turning it about with a
spoon to coat the pieces evenly. Squeeze the saffron between your
fingers, thin stir it and its soaking liquid into the skillet.
Reduce the heat to low, cover tightly, and cook for 20 minutes,
turning the lamb cubes over from time to time. Scatter 1/2 of the
fresh coriander over the lamb and continue cooking, tightly covered
for 10 minutes more, or until the lamb is tender. To serve,
transfer the entire contents of the skillet to a heated platter,
and sprinkle the top with lemon juice and the remaining fresh
coriander.
