This Christmas-style mutton stew leans on slow building of flavour—starting with warm whole spices, followed by patiently cooked onions, and yoghurt that gives body without making the stew heavy. The pressure-cooked mutton turns tender while still holding shape, and the final simmer with fresh tomato adds brightness, rounding the dish beautifully.
