·        Reserve the balance masala  we will need it at the later stage

·        Pressure cook mutton till its done 75%. You know your pressure cooker better as it varies to each other so follow  your whistles.

·        Now add oil, throw in the onions, fry  till it turns light brown, now add in the left over masalas one after the other and sauté.

·        Add the cooked mutton and mix well into the masala

·        Add the masala gravy (from the cooked meat) and if needed add water as per the consistency you need. Add the coconut powder.

Goes very well with any Indian breads. We prefer to have it with Ghee rice and surki. Recipes coming up  soon.
