Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams mutton
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large, finely chopped onion
- 2 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste
- 2 finely chopped green chili
- 100 grams tomato purée
- 1 teaspoon coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin powder
- 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 inch cinnamon stick
- 200 ml water
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh coriander leaves
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large pot or pressure cooker over medium heat.
Add the bay leaf and cinnamon stick, sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the chopped onions and sauté them until they turn golden brown.
Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and green chili, cook for an additional 2 minutes to remove raw flavors.
Mix in the tomato purée, coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Cook the mixture for about 5 minutes until the oil starts to separate from the masala.
Add the mutton pieces, stir well to coat them with the spice mixture. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mutton starts to brown.
Pour in the water and mix well. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 45 minutes, or until the mutton is tender. If using a pressure cooker, cook on high until the first whistle, then reduce to medium and cook for 20 minutes.
Once the mutton is cooked, stir in the garam masala and adjust seasoning as needed.
Garnish with fresh coriander leaves before serving.
Serve hot with a side of low-carb naan or cauliflower rice for a complete meal.
