Method
1. To make the masala, gather all the ingredients in a mixer/ grinder. By adding water little by little, grind into a smooth paste. 2. Before marinating the mutton chops, you need to clean them first. Using the turmeric and salt, clean the mutton chops thoroughly. Rinse them a few times and keep them aside. 3. In a pressure cooker, add 1 tsp of oil. Once the oil is heated, add the mutton chops and cook till the meat turns pink. Next, add the paste made in step 1, turmeric powder, salt, and a little water. Mix everything. 4. Close the pressure cooker and cook till you hear five whistles. After that, let it cool and remove the lid. 5. Next, we prepare the tempering. In a saucepan or kadhai, take some oil. Add all the tempering ingredients. Once they start to crackle, add the mutton chops prepared above. You can add salt if needed. 6. Cook the mutton chops on medium flame till all the water evaporates and they become dry. 7. Garnish with coriander leaves before serving.
