Step 1
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 2
Working in batches, sear lamb cubes until browned on two sides, ~3 minutes per batch. Transfer to a plate.
Step 3
Reduce heat to medium. Add diced onion to the same skillet and sauté until softened and golden, ~4 minutes.
Step 4
Stir in ginger-garlic paste and cook until fragrant, 45 seconds. Add garam masala and chili powder, stir for 30 seconds.
Step 5
Pour in crushed tomatoes and yogurt. Return lamb to the skillet, stir to combine, then simmer uncovered for 8 minutes.
Step 6
Drizzle in heavy cream, stir gently, and simmer 2 more minutes until sauce thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper.
