           -sirloin, boned T-Bone steak
           -New York Strip, or round
           -steak, or lamb leg or

           -2x2x1inch cubes
    1/2 c  Water
      2 tb Plain yogurt
      1 tb Raw cashews or almonds,
           -ground in a blender to a
           -coarse powder
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Garam masala
           Mild onion rings (garnish)
 
  1. Heat 2tb oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the potatoes until
  they turn medium brown, 6 to 7 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon
  and set aside. (Omit this step for a lower-fat dish.)
  
  2. Add 2 tablespoons oil to the pan and heat over medium low heat.
  Fry bay leaf, red chili, cardamom, cinnamon, and cloves for a few
  seconds. Add onion and fry until richly browned but not burnt, 18 to
  20 minutes, stirring constantly.
  
  3. Stir in ginger, garlic, green chili, turmeric, cumin, and sugar.
  Add meat and water. Lower the heat and simmer, covered, 30 minutes.
  Add the potatoes and simmer, covered, until both meat and potatoes
  are tender, about 30 more minutes. Turn heat very low. Blend in
  yogurt, nuts, and salt and remove from heat. (Prolonged heating will
  curdle the sauce, detracting from its appearance and texture.) Stir
  in garam masala. Decorate with onion rings and cilantro.
