- In a mixer grind together the ginger garlic paste, pepper powder, turmeric powder, cinnamon, cloves and cumin to form a smooth paste.
- Add this to the sliced meat. Pour in the vinegar and half the chopped onions, green chilies, curry leaves and salt and marinate for about two hours.
- Transfer the contents to a pressure cooker. Place the whole potatoes on top of the meat. (Leave the skin on)
- Pressure cook for about 10-15 minutes, or till meat is nice and tender.
- Remove from flame. Remove the potatoes and peel them. Chop into cubes.
- Check if all the water is absorbed and the meat is nice and dry. (If there is a lot of gravy, let the curry simmer for a while, leaving the pan open)
- In a heavy bottomed pan add oil, when the oil is hot add the remaining onions, green chillies and the curry leaves and sauté for a while, till the onions turn slightly brown.
- Add the meat to the pan and continue roasting the meat till its well coated with masala and fried onions.
