Method
- 1
Heat the ghee in a large heavy pan and fry the bay leaves and cinnamon stick for 30 seconds, then add the chopped onion and cook over medium heat for 10 minutes until golden.
- 2
Add the garlic and the mutton pieces and brown on all sides for 8 minutes.
- 3
Stir in the kashmiri chilli powder, ground fennel and ground ginger, then add the natural yoghurt a spoonful at a time, stirring well so it does not split.
- 4
Pour in 350ml water, bring to a gentle simmer, cover and cook over low heat for 55-60 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mutton is tender and no pink remains.
- 5
Uncover and simmer for a further 5-8 minutes to let the deep red gravy thicken around the meat.
- 6
Rest for 5 minutes before serving with rice.
