Clean the goat head thoroughly and chop it into pieces.

Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat until shimmering.

Add chopped onions and sauté until golden brown, about 8-10 minutes.

Stir in ginger and garlic paste; cook for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

Add green chilies and chopped tomatoes; cook until tomatoes soften, about 5 minutes.

Mix in coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric, and red chili powder; sauté for 2 minutes.

Add the goat head pieces and salt; stir to coat with spices.

Pour in enough water to cover the meat; bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 2-3 hours until meat is tender.

Check occasionally, adding water if necessary to prevent sticking.

Once tender, adjust seasoning and stir in fresh coriander and lemon juice before serving.
