Marinate mutton with ginger, 2 tsp salt and garlic for 1/2 hour.
Heat wok with ghee and fry cinnamon and cloves till fragrant.
Add shallots, green chilli and cardamon seeds, then potatoes till fragrant.
Add mutton and stir fry for 2 mins. Cover and allow mutton to cook till the juice evaporates. Turn occassionally.
