Directions

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and coat with about 1 Tbsp of cooking oil.
Add in the onion and a pinch of salt and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, ginger, carrots and ½ tsp salt. Continue cooking until softened and fragrant, about 2 minutes more.
Add in the ground lamb, breaking apart with a wooden spoon. Once the meat is about halfway cooked through (about 5 minutes) stir in the soy sauce, Garam Masala, another ½ tsp salt, and the cilantro. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the meat is cooked through, about 5-7 minutes more. Season to taste with salt.
Serve your warm ground lamb mixture over crisp lettuce leaves. Top with a dollop of Greek yogurt, a drizzle of hot sauce (if desired), and more fresh cilantro.
