- Then add the mutton/beef and cook until the color changes
- While the mutton/beef is cooking, crush the fennel seeds, cumin seeds, coriander seeds, black peppercorns, cinnamon, black cardamom, green cardamom, cloves, and bay leaves to convert it into a powder form.
- Now, add the nihari masala powder, chili powder, turmeric powder, and salt then cook the spices for 4-5 minutes
- Add the water and cook for a further 2 hours on low heat until the meat is tender
- In a single bowl, mix the wheat flour and 100ml of water to make a smooth paste – this flour mixture acts as a stiffening agent, if you want to thick it more then add more flour to it.
- Add this mixture into the pan then cover up with a lid and cook for 30 minutes.
- Heat the olive oil in another pan on medium heat
- Add the onions and fry them until browned
- Add these onions to the meat along with the chopped coriander, ginger, and chilies.
