Notes
Choose bone in mutton pieces for this curry for better flavor.
Marinating the meat ahead makes it more tender and juicier, also helps in tenderizing the meat.
If Mathania Chilies are not available though they are easily available online, i ordered from Amazon India, the link is https://amzn.eu/d/ciiNcwE. You can use Kashmiri chilies instead.
