Put 1 teaspoon oil in a pressure cooker, this is all the oil that will be used in this recipe
Don't have to make the oil too hot as I will be adding all the masalas together
After adding 1 teaspoon oil, Bayleaf, Black Cardamom, Green Cardamom, the small cinnamon stick, Clove, Black Pepper Kernels
Stir the spices together
Lower the flame
Add 200 gms chopped onion
Add garlic paste, ginger paste, turmeric powder, coriander powder, kashmiri chilli powder, green chillies (kashmiri chilli powder gives a nice colour to the dish)
Add the mutton
Mix everything well
Once all the masalas are mixed add about 1/2 cup water to it, some water will come from the mutton and onions as well
Now pressure cook it on high flame, The mutton cooks really fast because of the onions
One the whistle goes off, remove the pressure cooker from the flame
Now I've put the flame on high
Remove the cooker from the flame as soon as one whistle goes off
Once the cooker has now cooled down open it
Now dry the masalas on high flame
Once it dries up, lower the flame and add the yoghurt
Now further dry the masalas
Once the mix has dried up and you can see the oil leaving
Add the salt and garam masala and mix well
Add 1 cup water for the gravy - don't add too much, just enough to drown the mutton
Don't cook for long as the mutton is fully cooked
Once it starts boiling cook on low flame for 3-4 minutes then cover it with the lid
Covering helps bring colour to the dish
Now serve it in a dish, remove the bay leaf when serving
Garnish this with coriander leaves
