Ingredients:
- 500 grams of mutton pieces
- One potato
- 2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp red chili powder
- 2 tsp ginger-garlic paste
- 1 tsp cumin powder
- 1 tsp coriander powder
- 2 tbsp mustard oil
- One big onion
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garam masala
- 2 bay leaves
- 1/2 cinnamon stick
- 2 green cardamoms
- 1 black cardamom (optional)
Method:
Step 1:
First, cut the potatoes and wash the mutton pieces thoroughly. Add mustard oil to the pan, and after a few minutes, when the oil becomes hot, put onions in the pan with ginger-garlic paste. Cook for 2 minutes.
Step 2:
Add all the spices to the onions along with 1/2 cup of water. Cook for 2-3 minutes more, being careful not to burn the onions. Now, add the mutton pieces to the masala. Cook for 5 minutes. The water will start to come out from the mutton pieces.
Step 3:
When the water is absorbed by the mutton pieces, add 2 more cups of water to the curry and add the potatoes. Now cook for 20-30 minutes on medium to low flame. When the mutton fat starts to come out, it means the mutton curry is ready.
