Ingredients:
- 500g Mutton
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric Powder
- 4 Cloves of Garlic (Crushed)
- 1-2 inch piece of Ginger (Crushed)
- 2 Green Chilies (Crushed)
- 1 teaspoon Pepper Powder
- 1 tablespoon Coriander Powder
- 4 Cloves
- 1 piece of Cinnamon (2 inches)
- 2 Cardamom Pods (Seeds only)
- 10-15 Curry Leaves
- teacup Chopped Pumpkin
- 1 cup Chopped Ash Gourd
- 1 cup Chopped Bottle Gourd
- 1 big Potato, chopped
- 1 big Carrot, chopped
- 1 Tomato, chopped
- 1 Onion, chopped
- 1 cup Scraped Coconut
- 1 tablespoon Coconut Oil
- 1 teaspoon Mustard Seeds
- 1 teaspoon Salt (or to taste)
Preparation:
Begin by thoroughly washing and cleaning the mutton pieces. In a pressure cooker, combine the mutton with turmeric powder, crushed garlic, crushed ginger, crushed green chilies, pepper powder, and a teaspoon of salt. Add 1 cup of water, close the cooker, and bring to a boil for 10 whistles. Allow the cooker to cool after boiling.
Meanwhile, cook the chopped pumpkin, ash gourd, bottle gourd, potato, and carrot in a separate pot with ½ cup of water until they are tender. Set aside.
In a mixer, grind the tomato and onion to a smooth paste and keep aside.
Grind the scraped coconut along with cloves, cinnamon, and cardamom seeds to form a smooth coconut paste.
In a frying pan, heat coconut oil and add mustard seeds. Once they start spluttering, add the tomato and onion paste. Saute over low heat until the mixture is well-cooked and the oil begins to separate.
Add coriander powder and curry leaves to the pan, sautéing for a further minute. Then, gradually introduce the coconut paste, stirring continuously until it starts to leave the sides of the pan.
Now, add the cooked mutton and vegetables to the pan. Allow them to cook together until any excess water evaporates, creating a thick and flavorful gravy. The consistency of the gravy can be adjusted based on your preference – more liquid if serving with bread or Appam, and drier if eating alone.
