Start by using 5 kg of boneless mutton. You can also use bone-in mutton if preferred.

Peel and finely slice 2 kg of onions.

Take a thick pot for cooking the mutton to prevent sticking.

Add vegetable oil to the pot. You can also use mustard oil.

Once the oil is hot, add whole spices: big cardamom, small cardamom, cinnamon, and bay leaves.

Add the sliced onions to the pot and cook on medium heat until they are 60-70% cooked, not fully golden brown.

After the onions are soft, add the mutton and mix well with the onions. Keep the flame high for 2-3 minutes to heat the mutton quickly.

Add 1 tbsp red chili powder, 1 tbsp Kashmiri chili powder, and 2 tbsp salt to the mutton. Mix well.

Lower the flame and cover the pot, cooking for 10 minutes. The onions and mutton will release water during this time.

After 10 minutes, check the mixture. The onions should have softened and released water. Keep cooking on medium-low heat until the onions are fully cooked.

After about 15-16 minutes, the onions should be fully softened. Increase the flame to high and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes to smooth out the gravy.

Add 100 g of ginger-garlic paste, using more garlic than ginger. Cook for 3-4 minutes until well combined.

Add 2 tbsp Kashmiri chili powder, 1/2 tsp turmeric powder, 2 tbsp coriander powder, 1 tbsp cumin powder, and 1 tsp kasuri methi (crushed).

Mix well and cook on high for 2-3 minutes to enhance the flavors.

Add 200 g of yogurt (optional) and 200 g of tomato puree. You can also use fresh tomatoes if preferred.

Cook on medium to high heat for 3-4 minutes until well combined.

Add hot water to the pot, mixing well with the mutton. Cover the pot and cook until the mutton is tender and soft.

After about 1 hour of cooking, check the mutton. It should be soft and the gravy should have released oil.

If using a pressure cooker, cook for 3-4 whistles after adding water.

Finish by adding chopped fresh cilantro and green chilies for garnish.
