Step:
Marinate mutton with vinegar at least hour. Roast moong dal on slow heat until lentil is crisp. But be careful we dont want to burn it. And soak in water 15 minutes. Then drain the water.
Heat the pant with oil and add the onion, bay leaf, cardamom and cinnamon. Fry onion till it becomes light golden.
Add chilli powder, turmeric, coriander, ginger, garlic and salt. Cook it till oil is separated. Add mutton and stir well. Cook it till it gets dry.
Stir it and add 7 cups water. Cook it under closed lid for about 10 minutes.
Put Moong lentil and green chilli into it. Cook it till moong lentil is cooked and check the salt and add cumin powder. Remove from the heat.
Daal khasi is ready. Serve this hot Mutton and Moong Dal curry with Plain rice / Paratha/ Naan whatever you want.
Tips: When you are roasting Moong Lentil, please stay beside it and stir it. Dont burn it. Some can think that burned moong gives texture. But in reality, burned moong lentil is the worst thing ever.
