Add 1 kg of mutton and cook until the color changes slightly.

Adjust the heat and add 1 tablespoon of finely chopped green chili, 1 tablespoon of ginger paste, and 1 tablespoon of garlic paste. Mix and roast until a brown crust forms.

Remove the mutton and add the golden brown onions to it, mixing well.

Add a little water to prevent the spices from burning.

Add 1/2 cup of whipped curds and stir well to mix with the gravy.

Add 1 cup of homemade tomato paste and stir until the gravy is slightly roasted.

Add 3.5 to 4 cups of water and ensure the pieces are well soaked.

Cover with a lid and cook on medium-low heat for about 35 to 40 minutes.

Remove the lid and roast the mixture well.

Add 4 potatoes, cut as desired, and mix well.

Add 3 cups of water and adjust the amount as needed.

Cover with a lid and cook for another 10 minutes until the potatoes are boiled.

Remove the lid and stir to prevent sticking, checking that the potatoes and meat are cooked.

Add 1 lemon juice, some chopped chilies, julienned ginger, and coriander for garnish.

Cover with a lid and leave for 2 to 3 minutes to settle before serving.
