Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams mutton mince
- 2 medium, finely chopped onion
- 2 medium, finely chopped tomatoes
- 2 finely chopped green chilies
- 2 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder
- 2 teaspoons coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
- 1 teaspoon or to taste salt
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup, chopped fresh coriander leaves
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup water
Instructions
Heat vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and allow them to sizzle for a few seconds.
Add chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.
Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and green chilies. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.
Add the chopped tomatoes and cook until they turn soft and blend with the onion mixture.
Mix in turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the spices to blend well.
Add mutton mince and stir well to coat with the spice mixture. Cook until the meat changes color.
Pour in water and cover the pan with a lid. Let it simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium-high. Continue to cook until the water evaporates and the mince becomes dry, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in garam masala and lemon juice. Mix well and cook for another minute.
Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve hot with naan or rice.
