Mutton Korma Curry

Mutton Korma Curry is a rich and aromatic dish that features tender mutton slowly cooked in a blend of spices and creamy yogurt. This high-protein curry is perfect for a wholesome dinner, served with rice or naan.

Ingredients

• Mutton (bone-in, cut into pieces) - 400 grams
• Onion (finely chopped) - 1 large (150 grams)
• Ginger-garlic paste - 1 tablespoon
• Yogurt (plain, thick) - 100 grams
• Tomato (pureed) - 1 medium (100 grams)
• Cooking oil - 3 tablespoons
• Garam masala - 1 teaspoon
• Coriander powder - 1 teaspoon
• Cumin powder - 1 teaspoon
• Turmeric powder - 1/2 teaspoon
• Red chili powder - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - to taste
• Fresh coriander leaves (chopped) - for garnish
• Water - 300 ml

Steps

1. Heat the cooking oil in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.
2. Add the ginger-garlic paste to the onions and sauté for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant.
3. Stir in the mutton pieces and cook on high heat for about 5-7 minutes, browning the meat on all sides.
4. Add the pureed tomato, along with turmeric, coriander, cumin, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well and cook for another 5 minutes until the oil separates from the mixture.
5. Reduce the heat to low and add the yogurt, stirring continuously to avoid curdling. Cook for 5 minutes.
6. Pour in the water, cover the pan, and let it simmer on low heat for 40-45 minutes, or until the mutton is tender.
7. Once the mutton is cooked, stir in the garam masala and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
8. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves before serving.
