Recipe
1
Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed pan and add green cardamoms, black cardamoms, cloves, and cinnamon stick until fragrant.
2
Add the mutton pieces and sear on high heat until lightly browned on all sides.
3
Reduce heat and stir in the Kashmiri red chili powder dissolved in a little water, followed by dry ginger powder and fennel powder.
4
Whisk the yogurt thoroughly and add it gradually to the mutton, stirring continuously to prevent curdling.

Add asafoetida and salt, then pour in enough water to cover the meat, bringing it to a gentle boil.
6
Cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid, lower the heat, and let the mutton simmer slowly until tender.
7
Drizzle the saffron-infused milk over the curry during the last ten minutes of cooking for a rich aroma.
8
Serve hot alongside warm, sweet Sheermal bread.
