Put the lamb and chickpeas in a pot and add enough water to cover.
Cook the meat and chickpeas for 45 minutes until the meat is tender enough to separate into fibers.
Coarsely chop the fresh garlic and add it to the pot.
Cook the garlic for 15 minutes.
Whisk the yogurt and egg in a separate bowl until smooth.
Add hot cooking liquid little by little to the yogurt to warm it, so it does not curdle.
Stir the tempered yogurt into the pot and heat over low heat for 3 minutes.
💡 Tip: Temper the yogurt with hot cooking liquid before adding it; the smooth consistency stays intact.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve with buttered mint.
