This is a Kashmiri preparation
Fry the onions golden brown and take them out and grind them.
Now the turnips should be fried in the same oil. After 5-6 minute take them out.
Put the turmeric, red chilies, coriander powder, salt in the oil and fry for 1/2 minute. Follow with meat with garlic, ginger and on slow heat for 8 to 9 minutes.
Now fry the turnips in it; the whole masala and cardamom then add 1.5 cups of water. Add sugar. Let it cook on a slow heat for an hour.
If the water is dried and the turnips are not brown from inside, put 1/2 cup more water and let it cook for another 15 minutes. Add the grinded golden onions. The curry should be thick, as you want but not very thick. A little 'gravy' is required. 1/2 cup of milk will be good for better taste and can be added instead of water at this stage.
You can dissolve a bit of saffron in warm milk & add it at the end. Garnish with coriander leaves.
