3. Heat oil/ghee in a kadai put chopped onions and fry till golden brown. Make a paste of these fried onions with the help of a blender.

4. Tranfer the pressure cooked mutton and the stock in a thick bottomed pan and add garam masala and turmeric to it. Boil for 5 minutes on high flame.

5. Fry the chilli powder in some oil and water and add this red chilli paste and onion paste and the remaining ghee/oil to this gravy.

(Tip:- mutton should be half cooked in pressure cooker and rest in the gravy. It also depends upon the quality of mutton how much time will it take to cook. Use preferably mutton with bones in this dish. You can also add few drops of red food color in theend to make the gravy look red.)
