Stir in minced ginger and garlic; cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes.

Add green chilies and curry leaves; sauté for another minute.

Mix in coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, and red chili powder; cook for 1-2 minutes.

Add mutton pieces and salt; stir well to coat the meat with spices.

Pour in water and bring to a boil; reduce heat to low and cover.

Simmer until mutton is tender, about 1.5 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally.

Once tender, remove the lid and cook until excess moisture evaporates, about 10-15 minutes.

Sprinkle garam masala and mix well; cook for another 5 minutes.

Garnish with fresh coriander and drizzle with lemon juice before serving.
