Mutton chops

It is a traditional mutton recipe prepared always at home.It is a recipe I learnt from my aunt , who is a very good non-vegetarian cook.

Grind to paste

• Garlic cloves - 15 nos

• coriander leave - 1 small bunch
• cinnamon - 1 small piece ( I use the cinnamon and clove powder)
• cloves - 3-4
• Green chillies - 5(you can also add chillipowder and reduce green chillies)

Method

• I always cook mutton in pressure cooker before making any mutton dish.

• heat oil  in cooker , add little onion,mutton , turmeric powder and fry for 5 mins , add water (required to cover mutton) and cook for 2 whistles.( any number of whistles till mutton is cooked)

• Heat oil in a vessel add sliced onion and fry till translucent and add grinded masala and fry for sometime.

• Add the cooked mutton and also mutton stock (as much required for curry ) and close a lid and cook for 5-10 mins on low flame.

• once you can see oil separated on the surface of the curry, remove the lid and cook on medium flame till it reaches a gravy consistency.

• serve with chapathis and rice.
