100g ginger, pureed in mixer with a bit of water
˝ kg peeled and chopped tomatoes
˝ kg chopped onion

1 tbsp turmeric
1.5 tbsp ground coriander
˝ tbsp red chili (or more if desired
˝ tbsp garam masala
1.5 tbsp salt (or to taste)
 
Stir dry spices with a bit of water to make a paste. In a large pot or wok, fry onion on medium heat in oil till golden. Stir in garlic and ginger, and then stir in spice paste and tomatoes.  Reduce heat to low and simmer 20 minutes, stirring often. Add mutton, stir well and cover. Simmer, still on low heat, for one hour. Transfer mutton to pressure cooker and set aside the sauce. Add 1 cup of water and seal the cooker. Cook on medium heat 10-12 minutes until cooker “sneezes” several times. Combine mutton and its original sauce in serving dish. Garnish with chopped fresh coriander and a dash of garam masala.
