MUTTON CURRY RECIPE
Mutton curry, is my favourite since childhood!!This one is my naani’s (grandma’s) recipe passed on to my mum and now I cook it the same way, and with same ingredients.
To get the best taste and texture, mutton needs to be cooked really slow, and for a good amount of time.The mutton can be from a sheep, or from goat, but traditionally the one we use in India is goats mutton, and to enjoy the rich taste of mutton cook it nice and slow on low flame.
The Main ingredient you need are Mutton,Onions, tomatoes, ginger, garlic, green chillies, dry spices/herbs- Mutton curry powder, degi mirchi, turmeric powder, red chilli powder, kasoori methi ,garam masala, whole dry spices-bay leaf, few cardamom pods, few whole black pepper ,cloves, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, fennel seeds, cinnamon stick.
Sauté all the whole spices in some ghee/ oil(Mustard oil is again a great alternative for this recipe) and add chopped ginger and garlic. You can use ginger garlic paste instead of fresh ginger and garlic.
Add chopped onions. Sauté the onions nicely, till they are translucent, add degi mirchi, mix well and add mutton. Add a little water and pressure cook it for almost 25-30 minutes, on low heat.
Once this is done, add the pureed tomato, mix well and add salt , red chilli powder ,turmeric powder, mutton curry powder and crushed Kasoori methi.Add water as per the desired consistency of the gravy, and again pressure cook on low heat for another 35-40 minutes.Once the mutton is cooked properly, it is done and ready to be served.
Garnish the curry with fresh slit ginger Juliennes, coriander and slit green chillies.Serve the hot curry with tandoori rotis, naan, Paranthas or rice.Don't forget the onions!
