Step 1
Heat ghee in a wide skillet over medium-high. Brown lamb, breaking it up with a spoon, until no pink remains, ~5 minutes.
Step 2
Stir in tomato paste and cumin, cook until fragrant, 60 seconds.
Step 3
Pour in broth and bring to a simmer. Cook 4 minutes until it reduces slightly and deepens in color.
Step 4
Whisk fenugreek paste into the simmering broth until fully dissolved and the sauce turns creamy and pale yellow.
Step 5
Tear flatbread into large pieces and layer on a plate. Pour the lamb and sauce over the bread.
Step 6
Scatter cilantro over the top and serve immediately while the bread is still warm.
