How to make the marinade
  1. Thinly slice the onions and fry till golden brown; set aside to drain. Crush by hand after cooling.
  2. Dry roast gram flour (besan) before adding cumin seeds, coriander powder, garam masala, and black pepper. Dry roast for a minute or two.
  3. Add poppy seeds (optional) and grind the spices.
  4. Mix the ground spices with the rest of the marinade ingredients (ginger paste, garlic paste, chilli flakes, yoghourt, chilli powder, lemon juice, and salt) together. Add the crushed onions to this mixture.
  5. Add the marinade to the mutton mince by hand. Make sure to wear gloves while doing it. Marinate the meat overnight for best results.
Main Cook
  1. Remove the marinated meat from the fridge half an hour before cooking.
  2. Add a tablespoon of oil to a heavy-bottomed pan and begin cooking the keema mixture on high heat.
  3. It will release a lot of liquid during the cooking process.
  4. Adjust the heat to medium and keep stirring the mixture for 10-15 minutes, or until the mixture begins to look like it is cooked.
  5. Add a little water if the mixture sticks to the pan.
  6. You may add some more oil to the sides.
  7. Turn the heat down and cook with the lid on for another 20 minutes, frequently stirring, until the keema appears darker and richer.
  8. Add the rest of the ginger, slit green chillies, and a tsp of garam masala.
  9. Cook for a few minutes more and adjust the seasoning by adding more salt and lemon juice. You may modify the consistency with water as well. Do keep it dry if you want it to follow the Bhuna style.
  10. Serve it with flatbread, preferably paratha, naan. Garnish with sliced onions, fresh mint leaves, lemon wedges, and slices of ginger.
