Ingredients
For the Aromatic Spice Paste:
-
1 tbsp coconut powder
-
6-7 green cardamoms
-
4 cloves
-
Small pieces of cinnamon
-
Water (as needed for grinding)
For the Mutton Marination:
-
½ kg mutton (cut into pieces)
-
2 tsp coriander powder
-
1 tsp red chili powder
-
½ tsp black pepper powder
-
1 tsp roasted cumin powder
-
1 tsp garam masala
-
½ tsp turmeric powder
-
1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
-
½ cup yogurt
-
½ cup fresh mint leaves (chopped)
-
½ cup fresh coriander leaves (chopped)
Fried Onion Addition
Fry 2 medium onions until golden brown. Let them cool in the fridge for 30 minutes, then crush them. Mix the crushed onions into the marinated mutton along with the oil used for frying. Optional: Add 1 tablespoon ghee for extra richness or 1 teaspoon raw papaya paste to speed up cooking.
Marination
Refrigerate the marinated mutton for at least 4-5 hours, preferably overnight, to intensify flavors. Seal the bowl properly to retain moisture.
Cooking Process
-
Transfer the marinated mutton to a heavy-bottomed pot.
-
Cook on high heat for 5 minutes to warm up the ingredients.
-
Meanwhile, heat a tava (griddle), then place the pot on it. Reduce the flame to low and slow cook for 30-35 minutes, adjusting based on whether papaya paste was used.
Final Adjustments
-
If excess water remains, increase the flame to evaporate it.
-
If the mixture is too dry, add a little warm water.
-
Stir in chopped green chilies and fresh coriander for a fresh finish.
Serving Suggestions
Serve hot with naan, roti, or parathas for a flavorful and satisfying meal. Enjoy the rich, tender, and aromatic Dum Ka Gosht with family and friends!
