Melt butter in a heavy skillet. Saute the remaining onions for 10
minutes. Remove the onions with a slotted spoon and reserve. Add the lamb
mixture to the skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, for 5
minutes. Add the remaining yogurt and cook until the liquid is absorbed. Add
half the water, cover and cook until the mixture is dry. Add the remaining water,
re-cover and cook 15 minutes.
