  • Once the oil is heated, add 1 tsp of ginger-garlic paste and saute well 
  • Now add 1 Kg Mutton/Goat Meat to the cooker and mix well
  • Add a cup of water to this Mutton. The Mutton will release some water of its own too, so we don't  need to add more water. If you feel this is less you can add a half cup extra water
  • Add Salt as per taste
  • Add 1/4 tsp Garam Masala powder. Mix all the ingredients well
  • Close the pressure cooker and cook the Mutton till it is completely cooked.
  • Once the Mutton is cooked, you will see that the Mutton stock is very less in the cooker. We added less water to the pressure cooker since we don't need more stock for this recipe.
