• 4 garlic cloves
• 2 green chilies
• 100 grams yogurt
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons coriander powder
• 1 teaspoon cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon red chili powder
• 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 1 teaspoon garam masala
• 1.5 teaspoons salt
• 250 ml water

Directions

Step 1

Wash the mutton thoroughly under running water, drain, and set aside.

Step 2

Finely chop the onions, tomatoes, ginger, and garlic. Slice the green chilies.

Step 3

Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the chopped onions to the hot oil and sauté until they are golden brown.

Step 5

Add the ginger, garlic, and green chilies. Sauté for another 2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 6

Stir in the chopped tomatoes, and cook until they soften and oil separates, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 7

Add the coriander powder, cumin powder, red chili powder, and turmeric powder. Mix well and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Step 8

Add the mutton pieces to the pot, stir to coat with the spice mixture, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until the meat is browned on all sides.

Step 9

Whisk the yogurt and add it to the pot, stirring continuously to prevent curdling, and cook for 5 minutes.

Step 10

Pour in the water and add salt to taste. Bring the mixture to a boil.

Step 11

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 40-45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mutton is tender and cooked through.

Step 12

Once cooked, sprinkle the garam masala over the gravy and simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

Step 13

Garnish with chopped coriander leaves before serving.

Step 14

Serve hot with rice or Indian bread.
