Notes
I have taken boneless mutton but you can use mutton pieces with bones.
Let the curry leaves crackle first and then add the garlic cloves to it.
I have used crushed green chilies in the recipe for added taste and flavor. You may replace it with green chili paste.
You may use butter or ghee to make this dish instead of cooking oil.
