Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 1 hour 30 minutes
Ready in: 1 hour 50 minutes

Ingredients:

• 500 grams mutton, cut into pieces
• 2 onions, finely chopped
• 2 tomatoes, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste
• 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 2 teaspoons red chili powder
• 1 tablespoon coriander powder
• 1 teaspoon cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon garam masala
• 4 tablespoons oil or ghee
• Salt to taste
• Fresh coriander leaves for garnishing

Whole Spices:

• 1 cinnamon stick
• 4 cloves
• 4 green cardamom pods
• 2 black cardamom pods
• 2 bay leaves
