Method.

Tongue has to be cleaned well. It has to be skinned after immersing in hot water. Nowadays, one can buy tongue from the cold storage so its already nicely cleaned.

Marinate the tongue after pricking it with a fork with ginger garlic paste made of ingredients given above with a little salt and pepper powder for 2/3 hours.

Put in pressure cooker with water covering the tongue, 5 cloves, 1 big stick of cinnamon and some peppercorns and pressure cook for an hour.

Open the pressure cooker when cool and cook on slow fire stirring occasionally, to prevent burning, keeping some broth if a curry is needed.

Grind a masala with ingredients given above for preparing it.

In a cooking vessel, heat some oil, and fry 1 large sliced onions till brown. Then fry the masala paste in the same oil and fry on slow fire till the oil separates; add sliced tongue and the broth. Cook for a few minutes. Tongue should be cooked tender. Could add chopped coriander if preferred.
