Creating Savor Lamb Kalya with Creamy Yogurt is straightforward if you follow these steps:

7. Pour Liquid: Add water or lamb broth, stirring well. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
8. Simmer: Cover the pot and let the lamb simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the meat is tender. Stir occasionally and add more liquid if necessary.
9. Season: Once the lamb is tender, taste and adjust the salt as needed.
10. Prepare Yogurt: In a small bowl, whisk the yogurt until smooth and creamy.
11. Serve: Ladle the Lamb Kalya into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve with a side of yogurt and lemon wedges.
