Notes

Take small mutton pieces to make this dish. This ensures perfect cooking.
I have used gingelly oil to make this dish. You can use any type of cooking oil for the dish.
Adding curry leaves is optional but it enhances the flavor of the dish significantly.
Do not add dry red chilies with the whole spices while roasting because it will get burnt quickly.
