    Mutton Masala

    April 16, 2016 By Anlet Prince 2 Comments

    Mutton Masala a basic and simple Mutton recipe with fresh ground masala. Mutton Masala pairs well with the Mutton Gravy and Plain rice. The best thing about this recipe is that it does not require any marination, still it tastes awesome. Juicy Pieces of mutton are very well suitable for this recipe. I generally separate the bones and the fleshy portion of mutton and make the bones into Mutton Gravy and the fleshy portion into this Mutton Masala. Mutton is cooked with onion, tomato and freshly ground spices. The fresh masala makes the dish simply aromatic. I am sure you would love this recipe. Here goes the recipe...

    Tips:

    • For best results keep the Mutton Masala Closed for 15 minutes after cooking.
    • Increase or decrease the Dry red chillis according to your spice requirements. Mine was a spicy masala.
    • I pressure cooked for 5 whistles in medium flame to cook my mutton tender. The number of whistles might vary based on the size of mutton and the type of mutton. After 5 whistles if the mutton is still had then close the pressure cooker again and cook until few more whistles.

    Serving Suggestion:

    Mutton Masala Pairs very well with Plain Rice, Chapati, Roti, Idli, Dosa, Poori, Appam and Idiyappam. I served Mutton masala with Plain rice and Mutton Gravy.
