Marinate mutton with yogurt, ginger, garlic, and spices for at least 1 hour.

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

Add sliced onions and sauté until golden brown, about 10-12 minutes.

Stir in marinated mutton and cook until browned on all sides, about 8-10 minutes.

Add chopped tomatoes and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

Pour in water to cover the mutton and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until mutton is tender, about 1.5-2 hours.

Stir occasionally and add water if necessary to prevent sticking.

Once tender, add garam masala and lemon juice, mixing well.

Cook uncovered for an additional 10 minutes to thicken the sauce.

Garnish with fresh coriander before serving.
