Hi everyone..😊
last week was really hectic for me.. with guests and kids ptm....😌..
so I was not able to post any recipe... actually this was suppose to be posted first..then I ended up with chocolate cake.. and lunch box ideas...
anyway coming back to mutton gravy /mutton kulambu.... actually at home I rarely cook mutton.. and my recipe is a tried and tested one( mix of a few of my disaster recipe..ofcoure I did improvised a lot.... so don't worry)
I cook chicken often..but when it comes to mutton... I some how feel the flavor is different even when I tried with same masala.. so it got me thinking.. so I ended up in this recipe..
actually I wanted to make mutton soup too.. so I tweaked this recipe a little and yes I made the soup and gravy too...
I am sure this is a easy recipe not much with any difficulty.. beware its not any traditional recipe from my mom or aunty..so if you are expecting a traditional one...don't worry I will get back with that one soon...😊
As I said its a simple recipe I am just using grinded coconut with fennel seeds/sauf/sombu..
I always grind coconut with sauf not with anything else.. because the coconut and fennel seeds/sauf are my favourite combination.. this recipe hardly takes 40mins..including the cooking of lamb..
now like I said I used this recipe for soup also.. so I am not marinating the lamb..i cook them with onion and tomato...
so lets get started with tasty mutton kulambu/mutton gravy/ lamb gravy..
do check out my notes at the end for more tips..😊
MUTTON GRAVY/LAMB GRAVY/ MUTTON KULAMBU
( with soup)
preparation time - 10 mins
cooking time - 35 mins
total time - 45 mins
INGREDIENTS:
MUTTON KULAMBU/MUTTON GRAVY RECIPE:
1.first wash the mutton for 4-5 times until the water comes out clean.
2.now chop the onion and tomato into fine pieces.
3. as I going to make the soup, I will boil the mutton with some onion,tomato,haldi,salt and freshly crushed pepper ( adding pepper in making soup is really good for health, so instead of chilli use pepper when boiling mutton.)
4. heat some oil in the pressure cooker..add 1 finely chopped onion to the oil..saute them until the colour changes
5. now when the colour changes add 1 finely chopped tomato to it.
6. when the tomato becomes mushy/soft add ginger garlic paste ,crushed pepper ,salt and haldi
7.when you have sauted the entire mixture for about 2 mins add the washed mutton /lamb pieces.
now saute the mutton pieces till the entire masala is coated on the mutton..
8. once the mutton is nicely coated with the masala add 2-3 cups of water to it. depending upon your requirement for soup..i added 2 cups of water to it as I need 1-1.5 cups of soup.
after adding water you can add little chopped coriander leaves to it, as it increase the flavor of the soup..this is totally optional..
9.now pressure cook the mixture for 3-4 whistles and reduce the flame to sim/low for another 15- 20 mins for the mutton to cook. by the time mutton is cooking grind grated coconut and sauf/fennel seeds into a fine paste and keep it ready.
10 now once the pressure settles open the cooker and just filter the soup and serve it with some garnished coriander leaves or even without it.
11.now once you remove the required amount of soup we can use the rest of the water for gravy also.
12. now heat some oil in the kadai/pan . add mustard seeds, curry leaves to it( you can add 1 tsp of fennel seeds also to it).. after it splatters add remaining 2 chopped onions to it.
13.once the onion turns colour add tomato to it.
14.now saute the tomato till it turns mushy.. once it turns mushy add chilli powder,coriander powder and turmeric powder to it.
saute the masala on low flame till oil starts separating from it. once the masala starts separating oil add the pressure cooked mutton into it.
15. let the mixture boil for 5- 10 mins.. after that add the grinded mixture of coconut and fennel seeds to it..
16. now after adding the grinded coconut.. add more water if you feel the gravy is too thick.. let the gravy boil for another 10 mins in medium flame.. I always add boiled egg to any non veg gravy at the time of boiling and the white part of the boiled egg absorbs the masala fro the gravy and it turns out to be the perfect side dish for the gravy
17. once the gravy turns into the desired consistency switch off the flame and transfer the contents in to a serving bowl and garnish with coriander leaves..
oh don't forget to see my yummy boil eggs in the gravy..
TIPS:
1.the cook time of the mutton/lamb differs always..so after opening the pressure cooker if you feel its not cooked cook for another 5 more mins..keep in mind the mutton is again going to be cooked in the gravy for another 15 mins..
2.since I am making soup also with the gravy I am pressure cooking the mutton/lamb pieces with onion and tomato..this enhances the flavor of the soup.. also when making soup add crushed black pepper avoid green chilli.. as black pepper is very good than the green chilli especially in soup..
3. the amount of oil can be reduced if you like as when u cook the mutton/lamb pieces it will also produce kind of oily secretion because of the mutton/lamb fat..
4. always saute the masala in low flame ,as high flame will burn the masala and that will spoil the taste..
5.if you want you can add more ginger garlic paste when sauting the masala if you like the flavor it gives..
6. after adding the grinded coconut don't let the gravy boil too much..as it will become very thick also the flavor will change..so after adding coconut don't cook more than 5- 10 mins..
7.here comes my favourite part....😊
you have to try adding boiled egg while making chicken or mutton gravy..let it sit in the gravy for 30 mins or so.. then that's the best ever boiled egg preparation you would have tasted...yummmyyyyy.. this is one of my husbands favourite..
so guys do try this simple, easy mutton kulambu/ lamb gravy and do let me know how it turned out..

I will be back again with another interesting recipe soon..until then its me signing off..tata👋
