@waqaszubairy

You can cook it in a regular pot, it just takes longer.

what can you add if you don't have curry leaves and tamarind paste...is there any other option...pls let me know.Thankyou

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Curry leaves have a unique flavor so they are hard to substitute... you can leave them out. Tamarind provides the sour flavor so you could substitute lime or lemon juice. The type of sourness is a bit different but do-able.

Where are you finding these ingredients in the US? When we lived in Kuwait we had a wonderful abundance of spices, including those from India... I miss all those markets with those amazing spices! Where in the world can we find these here?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Most US cities have Indian grocery stores. You will find all of the spices at pretty reasonable prices.

I used some lamb shank in this soup and it was amazing.

what no tomatoes?

Try with two tomatoes in it it'll taste best. Letting out a secret from Hyderabadi Khatti dall. ;-)

Chop tomatoes and put with other spices and pressure cook it.
