Step-by-step

  1. For the marinade and meat: combine the meat with all the marinade ingredients and a teaspoon of salt in a bowl.
  2. Mix well, cover and leave in the refrigerator for at least four hours, or overnight.
  3. For the sauce: pour the oil into a pressure cooker and set it over a medium heat.
  4. When it's hot, add the sugar and stir occasionally as it dissolves.
  5. Add the onion and sauté for 30 seconds, then stir in the garlic and ginger. Fry for 10 minutes, or until the onion is browned.
  6. Spoon in the chilli powder and mix well. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the tomatoes. Cook for 1 minute, then add the meat and its marinade. Brown the meat well on all sides for 7 minutes.
  7. The tomatoes and meat will release plenty of juices. Mix, then seal the lid.
  8. Heat to full pressure. Reduce the heat to very low and cook under pressure for 20 minutes.
  9. Turn off the heat and allow the pressure to drop by itself. Open the lid and return the pan to a high heat. Bring to a boil and add the garam masala.
