Mutton chops - Dry & Gravy

Ingredients:

Mutton-1/2 kg
Cinnamon Stick – ½ inch piece
Cardamom- 2 nos
Cloves – 3 nos
Pepper – 5 nos
Fennel seeds- 1tsp
Big onion- 2 
Ginger-1 inch piece
Garlic- 5 nos
Red chili powder-2 tsp
Turmeric powder-1 tsp
Coriander Powder-3 tsp
Salt- to taste

Method:

Grind Cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, pepper, Ginger , Garlic and fennel seeds in a mixer.  Saute big onions with little oil.  Add this to this mixer and grind with the spices. 
In a pressure cooker splutter some mustard and add cleaned mutton, ground masala and onions. Also add turmeric powder, Red chili powder and coriander powder.  Pressure cook until the mutton is cooked well. If you want to remove some gravy separately add more water say, 2 cups of water. If you don’t want gravy add less water say,   1 cup.
Pressure cooking and the measurement of water depend on the mutton .So you need to be cautious about that
Transfer this to a kadai. Add salt and give a good boil. If you want gravy separately and if there is sufficient gravy you can now transfer them separately to bowl with two three pieces.   Simmer the balance pieces till there are completely dried.If you don’t want gravy separately, simmer the mutton till they are completely dried.

Garnish with coriander leaves and serve hot...... Mutton chops ready:)
