Heat two tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat.
Finely chop one large brown onion and add it to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft, sweet, and golden brown.
Add 6 crushed garlic cloves and grate a 5 cm piece of fresh ginger directly into the pot. Alternatively, if using pastes, add one tablespoon each of garlic and ginger paste.
Add whole spices: 2 bay leaves, 5 cloves, one cinnamon stick, and 8 lightly crushed cardamom pods.
Stir in 2 tablespoons of Kashmiri red chili powder or paprika, 1 tablespoon ground cumin, 1 tablespoon ground coriander, and 1 teaspoon chili powder.
Mix the spices into the onion and toast for about 30 seconds to release their aroma.
Add 1 tablespoon of tomato paste and stir well to combine.
Add the lamb pieces and brown them on all sides.
Pour in 300 ml of water or broth, cover the pot, and simmer on low to medium heat for about one hour, or until the lamb is tender and easily shredded with a fork.
For the quick pickled red onions, finely slice one red onion and place it in a sterilized jar. Toss gently to separate the slices.
