Mutton curry is typically served with rice or naan bread, making it a complete and satisfying meal.
There are many regional variations of mutton curry, each with its own unique blend of spices and ingredients. This recipe offers a basic and flavorful version that is sure to please everyone. With its tender meat, aromatic spices, and rich gravy, mutton curry is a dish that is both delicious and satisfying.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Marinate the mutton: In a large bowl, combine the mutton pieces with turmeric powder and 1/2 tablespoon of salt. Mix well and set aside for at least 30 minutes, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to develop.
  2. Saute the aromatics: Heat mustard oil in a pressure cooker or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add fennel seeds, bay leaf, cinnamon stick, cardamom pods, and cloves. Sauté for a minute until fragrant.
  3. Add the onions and ginger-garlic paste: Add the chopped onions and cook until softened and translucent, about 10-12 minutes. Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and cook for an additional minute.
  4. Incorporate the tomatoes and spices: Add the chopped or pureed tomatoes, coriander powder, meat masala, and remaining salt. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until the tomatoes soften and release their juices.
  5. Pressure cook the curry: Add the marinated mutton pieces and enough water to cover the meat. Close the pressure cooker and cook for 20-25 minutes on medium heat, or until the mutton is tender. Alternatively, if using a Dutch oven, simmer for about 1-1/2 hours, or until the mutton is tender.
  6. Finish the curry: Once the mutton is cooked, open the pressure cooker carefully and release the pressure. Add the potatoes (if using), garam masala, and kasuri methi (if using). Simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked through and the gravy has thickened to your desired consistency.
  7. Serve and enjoy: Garnish the mutton curry with chopped cilantro and serve hot with rice or naan bread.
