While I was browsing for mutton curry recipes to prepare for the weekend, I came across this recipe from Chef Sanjeev Kapoor's website. It was so delicious and lip smacking. Its has such a simple procedure too.
Ingredients:
- Mutton- 350gm
- Bay leaves -2
- Cloves -2
- Peppercorns - 5
- Dry red chilli -3
- Onion sliced - 1
- Ginger garlic paste - 1tbsp
- Red chilli powder - 1 tbsp
- Coriander powder - 1tbsp
- Turmeric powder -1/4tsp
- Yogurt - 2tsp
- Salt -as needed
- Oil - 2 to 3 tbsp
- Coriander seeds crushed - for garnish
Method:
1. Cook mutton for 3 whistles in medium flame( or till half cooked) with salt and enough water. Drain and reserve the stock(mutton cooked water).
2. Heat oil in the cooker, add the bay leaf, cloves, broken red chillis and peppercorns. Saute for a minute.
3. Add the sliced onions, saute till translucent.
4. Add the ginger garlic paste and saute til raw smell leaves.
5. Add the red chilli powder, turmeric and coriander powder and saute for 2 mins.
6. Add the half cooked mutton and mix well. Now add the mutton stock and pressure cook for 4 or more whistles on medium flame till it is cooked well.
7.Open the lid and adjust salt. whisk yogurt separately and add in the gravy stirring well. Just give it a single boil and switch off.
8. Garnish with crushed coriander seeds and serve with hot steamed rice!.
Notes:
- You can cook the gravy in pan too but it takes quite sometime. So if you are patient enough you can go for it :).
