Counted by weight; no spoon or piece conversion applies.
Instead of Lamb rump
Boneless leg of lambUse the same weight; similar lean texture, cook 5-10 minutes less if the piece is thin.
Lamb filletUse the same weight; very lean and tender, so cook briefly and add later.
Lamb shoulderUse the same weight; more fat, so cook 20 minutes longer and skim the gravy.
Vegetarian swaps
PaneerUse 60-70% of the meat weight in thick slabs; fry first and add 10 minutes before the end.
Button mushroomUse the same weight, halved; cook 10-12 minutes in the gravy so they stay firm.
PotatoUse 75-80% of the meat weight, parboiled and halved; add 15 minutes before the end.
