All The powdered spices including the powdered Cloves and cardamom are mixed along with the vinegar . Marinade the mutton using a little of this spice mixture and keep aside for a couple of hours. Keep the remaining part aside.
Grind the onion ginger and garlic to paste. The ginger may be julienned if you so like.
Heat oil in a pan. Fry the onion garlic ginger paste for sometime. Use the remaining amount of spices and fry till oil separates. Now add the marinated mutton. Cook for sometime.Add a little warm water if you want. then transfer to a pressure cooker and let it cook till tender. This may be served with steamed rice or chapatis.
