2½cm ginger, cut into small strips

Method:
Roast the peppercorns and cardamom seeds in a dry frying pan, until fragrant. Transfer to a coffee grinder and render to a smooth powder. Blend together the ginger and tomatoes in a blender.
Meanwhile heat the oil in a saucepan and fry the onions until golden brown. Add the meat and the ground spices and with constant stirring fry for 5 minutes. Add the blended tomato paste, paprika and salt. Mix to combine with the meat and cook for a further 3 minutes.
Add the water, bring to a boil then cover and lower the heat to a very low simmer and cook for an additional hour (until the lamb is tender). Spoon into a serving bowl, garnish with the coriander leaves and serve with rice.
