Pressure cook the marinated meat with very little water.. Maybe a 1/4 cup or less.

Heat coconut oil in a pan and splutter mustard now add the coconut slices and saute.
Add the ginger garlic and shallots,green chillies and curry leaves too.
Saute till golden.
Pour it over the already boiling,cooked meat.

I wanted it to turn a deep brown and ooze oil... But my ever hungry family was near the cooker... Asking me if it was done.. And my kid even told me.. That's enough cooking... Now dont kill the mutton, Amma!!
So I had to stop with a wee bit of gravy.. Thick n glorious!!
Serve hot with bread of your choice, rice...
