Method
Heat the oil in a pressure cooker on medium heat. Fry the sliced onions for 8 to 10 minutes until golden brown. Add the ginger garlic paste and fry for 1 minute until the raw smell goes.
Add the mutton and turmeric powder and fry for 5 minutes until the mutton changes colour. Add the salt and 750 ml water. Pressure cook on medium heat for 6 whistles, about 25 minutes. Let the pressure drop.
While the mutton cooks, dry roast the dry red chillies, black peppercorns, coriander seeds, cumin, green cardamom, black cardamom and cloves in a pan on low heat for 3 minutes until they smell good. Add the poppy seeds and roast for 1 minute. Take them out. Roast the dry coconut in the same pan for 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown.
Grind the roasted spices to a fine powder in a mixie. Add the roasted coconut and 150 ml water and grind to a smooth paste.
Open the cooker. Add the masala paste and 150 ml water to the mutton and mix. Simmer without the lid on low heat for 10 minutes, stirring now and then, until the gravy is thick and oil shows on top. Add coriander leaves. Serve hot with rice, vade or chapati.
