Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Place the mutton in a pot, add water and half a teaspoon of turmeric, and leave the mutton in turmeric water for 5 minutes.
  2. Then wash the mutton chunks a few times.
  3. Place in a colander to drain excess water for a few minutes before you follow the next step of cooking the mutton(goat)curry.
  4. In a slightly large pan, pour in the oil, and add onions, garlic-ginger paste, curry leaves, cardamom pods, pandan leaf, and cinnamon stick.
  5. Once the onions turn soft and you get the aroma of the pandan leaf and ginger garlic paste.
  6. This would take 5-7 minutes then add the chopped tomato(tomato paste as a substitute), and green chillies.
  7. Cook further for a few seconds over a low-medium fire.
  8. Reduce heat to low. add the spice powders in the following order, turmeric powder, red chilli powder, coriander powder
  9. Cook for a few minutes until you are left with a dark coarse spice mixture this would take 5-10 minutes.
  10. Include the Mutton into the pan and incorporate it with the mixture.
  11. Leave it to cook for a few minutes, mixing occasionally, 10-15 minutes.
  12. Pour in the water, season with salt and let the mutton curry simmer until the water is reduced.
  13. Don’t cook on high heat to hurry the cooking process as it just evaporates the water, leaving the meat still half-cooked.
  14. As the mutton curry cooks, check on the tenderness of the meat, if the mutton is still semi-tough then add extra water.
  15. You will notice the mutton gravy thickening and changing colour.
  16. Once the water is reduced almost to the bottom, add coconut milk.
  17. Check on the seasoning and add salt if needed.
  18. Cover and cook over low-medium heat for at least 45 minutes to an hour until the meat is tender.
  19. If you find you need a bit of gravy-like me, just add 1/2 a cup of water, by this point, there’s already a thick gravy which can absorb the water but still keep its thick consistency.
  20. Serve warm with any of the side dish options mentioned above.
