Vegetarian Mutton Curry without Onion & Garlic

Vegetarian Mutton Curry is prepared without onion and garlic. You might be disappointed or surprised. 
Usually Mutton Curry or any other Mutton recipes need lot of spices, onion, garlic etc. But this is an unique recipe which is cooked without any onion and garlic. As onion and garlic are being treated as non-veg item for many Indians, hence during Diwali or kali Puja, Bengalis offer this item as Prasad or bhog to goddess kali. My mother used to offer this special dish to goddess Kali during the kali puja which was organised every year in our home.

Preparation:

Wash the mutton pieces. Put the mutton in a bowl. Mix the mutton with turmeric powder and salt and keep it aside fro 20 minutes.
Take the curd in a cotton cloth and squeeze it well to drain out the water completely. Replace the curd in a bowl, add ginger paste, kashmiri red chili powder, cumin powder and beat well to remove any lumps. Then add cinnamon powder and cardamom powder, again mix well. 
Mix the mutton with the card mixture and allow it to marinate for atleast 2 hours.
Meanwhile, heat oil (2 tbsp) in a pressure cooker on high flame. Fry the potatoes with a pinch of turmeric powder and salt till the potatoes become golden brown. Remove the potatoes and keep them aside.
In the pressure cooker add more oil and add bay leaves, crushed cloves, green cardamom, cinnamon. Let them splutter.
Keeping the gravy in the bowl, add the marinated mutton only in the pressure cooker. Fry them for 3/4 minutes. The water or the juice from the mutton will come out. Fry it till the mutton becomes golden brown, stir in between to avoid burning. When the juice becomes thick and the gravy from the bowl and potatoes. Keep stirring ocassionally. After few minutes add water (4/5 cups). Let it bowl in high flame. Cover the lid of the pressure cooker and wait for 6/7 whistle. Switch off the flame, let it be as it is for couple of minutes.
