Prep
Finely chop 1 medium yellow onion (150g), 2 green chilli, 2 small tomato (160g). Measure ginger-garlic paste (2 tbsp), kashmiri chilli powder (2 tsp), turmeric (0.5 tsp), ground coriander (1 tsp), ground cumin (0.5 tsp), garam masala (1 tsp). Thinly slice 0.5 medium red onion (80g). Have 400g lamb mince, 100g frozen peas, fresh coriander, and mint ready.

Bloom
Heat 2 tbsp neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tsp cumin seeds, sizzle 15 seconds until fragrant. Add chopped onion, cook 4 minutes stirring until edges turn golden. Stir in ginger-garlic paste and green chilli, cook 1 minute until raw smell fades.

Saute
Add 400g lamb mince, break up with wooden spoon, brown 5 minutes over medium-high until fully cooked and liquid evaporates. Add chopped tomato, chilli powder, turmeric, ground coriander, ground cumin, 0.5 tsp salt. Cook 3 minutes over medium-low stirring until tomato breaks down and oil beads.

Slice each pao bread horizontally. Heat a separate large skillet over medium heat, melt 30g butter. Working in batches if needed, place pao slices cut-side down, toast 60 seconds per side until golden and butter-soaked.
