Mutton curry for dinner .. after a long hectic day

Yesterday was a hectic day, with the horrible traffics and pot holes of Bangalore roads. I was completely frustrated and tired. But when my husband asked me what we should make for dinner, immediately I thought of making mutton curry. I got the recipe from my mom. The best part is, my mom doesn't eat non-veg but still cooks delicious non-veg dishes..

 Ingredients I used for this mutton curry were

          1. Mutton

          2. Turmeric

          3. Red chili powder

          4. Salt

          5. Oil

          6. Onion

          7. Green chili

          8. Garam masala/mutton masala

          9. Bay leaf

I started by marinating the mutton with salt, turmeric and chili powder. Kept it aside for about 20-30 minutes. 

Once that is done, finely chop the onions and green chilies.

Then heat the oil in a container, added a little bit of sugar in hot oil (this gives some color to the curry). When sugar is heated and starts bubbling, I put bay leaves into it. Then added chopped onions and green chilies. Fried them until the onions were golden brown. Once the onions were done, added zinger and garlic paste, turmeric powder, garam masala, salt and chili powder. Fried them till oil started coming out of the mixture. Then added the marinated mutton and stirred it for some time till all the water from mutton are dried. After that added water and pressure cooked it until they are tender and well cooked.

After having the mutton curry and roti, I almost forgot the stress of the day’s work and traffic J
