Method

Whisk the curd, keep the heat low when it goes in, and let the oil rise.

  1. 01
    Get set

    Take the mutton out of the fridge 15 minutes before cooking. Do not wash it: Meatigo mutton is cleaned and ready to cook from pack to pan.

  2. 02
    Temper the oil

    Heat the oil until it just smokes, then lower the heat. Add the whole spices for 30 seconds.

  3. 03
    Seal the mutton

    Add the mutton and cook on high for 8 minutes until browned on all sides.

  4. 04
    Add the spices

    Reduce the heat. Add the chilli, fennel and ginger powders in a little water, stir for 1 minute, then add the onion.

  5. 05
    Add the curd

    Off the heat, stir in the curd. Return to low heat and cook for 8 minutes, stirring, until the oil separates.

  6. 06
    Simmer

    Add the hot water and salt. Cover and simmer on low for 35 to 40 minutes until the mutton is tender.

Questions

Why did the curd split?+

The pan was too hot or the curd was cold. Whisk it well and add it off the heat.

Is it very spicy?+

Kashmiri chilli adds colour more than heat.
