Place a large, deep cooking pan over high heat and add vegetable oil, followed by bay leaf, cardamom, cloves and cinnamon for flavour. Then add the sliced onions and cook until brown.
2.
Now, add the ginger-garlic paste and cook for another few minutes. Add the salt and powdered spices except for the garam masala and cook uncovered for another 5 minutes.
3.
Add the chopped tomatoes and coriander roots and leave it on low heat. Take another pan and start to sear the lamb shanks on high heat from each side, as it will give them a good texture and most importantly, seal in the flavour and juice inside.

Add garam masala powder and cover the pan with a lid, but do not forget to check on regular intervals.

Once the lamb shanks are cooked, remove them from sauce and keep them aside. Pass the sauce through a fine colander, and then pour it back over the lamb shanks.
