1 kg Modern Gourmet mutton, cut into pieces
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 large onions, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1-inch piece ginger, grated
2 tomatoes, pureed
1 cup plain yogurt
2 tablespoons curry powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon turmeric powder
1 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
1 cinnamon stick
4 green cardamom pods
2 bay leaves
Salt to taste
Fresh coriander leaves for garnish
Marinate the Mutton:
In a bowl, combine the mutton pieces with yogurt, turmeric powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
Prepare the Spice Base:
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the cinnamon stick, cardamom pods, and bay leaves. Sauté for a minute until fragrant.
Add the chopped onions and cook until golden brown. This process is crucial as it forms the flavor base of the curry.
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another 2-3 minutes.
Build the Curry:
Add the pureed tomatoes to the pot and cook until the oil starts to separate from the mixture.
Incorporate the curry powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, and red chili powder. Stir well to combine the spices with the tomato mixture.
Add the marinated mutton to the pot, ensuring the pieces are well coated with the spice mixture.
Simmer to Perfection:
Pour in enough water to cover the mutton pieces. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer.
Cover the pot and cook for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the mutton is tender and the flavors have melded beautifully. Stir occasionally and add more water if needed to maintain the desired consistency.
Finish and Garnish:
Once the mutton is cooked to perfection, taste and adjust the seasoning with salt as needed.
Garnish with fresh coriander leaves before serving.
Serve your succulent mutton curry with steamed basmati rice, naan, or roti for a complete meal that will transport you to the heart of rich culinary traditions. The tender mutton, combined with the aromatic spices, creates a dish that is truly unforgettable.
