Ingredients

• 500 grams Lean boneless mutton
• 100 grams Low-fat plain yogurt
• 2 medium Onion
• 3 medium Tomatoes
• 1.5 tablespoons Ginger-garlic paste
• 1 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 2-inch piece Cinnamon stick
• 4 pods Green cardamoms
• 4 pieces Cloves
• 1 piece Bay leaf
• 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
• 1.5 teaspoons Coriander powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoons Red chili powder
• 1 teaspoons Garam masala
• 1 to taste Salt
• 2 tablespoons chopped Fresh cilantro leaves
• 2 cups Water

Directions

Step 1

Wash the lean boneless mutton thoroughly and pat it dry. Cut it into bite-sized pieces.

Step 2

Finely slice the onions and roughly chop the tomatoes.

Step 3

In a large heavy-bottomed pan or pressure cooker, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil on medium heat.

Step 4

Add the cinnamon stick, cardamoms, cloves, bay leaf, and cumin seeds. Sauté for 30 seconds until aromatic.

Step 5

Add the sliced onions and sauté until golden brown, stirring occasionally for even cooking.

Step 6

Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and cook for 1-2 minutes until the raw smell disappears.

Step 7

Add the chopped tomatoes, turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Cook until the tomatoes turn soft and the oil starts to separate, about 10 minutes.

Step 8

Lower the heat and add the low-fat yogurt, stirring continuously to prevent curdling.

Step 9

Introduce the mutton pieces into the pan and mix well to coat them in the spice mixture.

Step 10

Pour in 2 cups of water, stir, and bring the mixture to a boil.

Step 11

Cover the pan with a lid and simmer on low heat for 40-45 minutes or pressure cook for 3-4 whistles until the mutton is tender. Adjust water as needed for desired gravy consistency.

Step 12

Once cooked, sprinkle garam masala on top and stir gently.

Step 13

Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro leaves before serving.

Step 14

Serve hot with steamed rice, naan, or roti for a wholesome meal.
