The winter season is here and every Indian loves to enjoy spicy food during the chilly days. Since I’m a big mutton lover, I love to try new mutton recipes – especially around winter. This time I tried Rajasthani Laal Maas , which is also called Mutton in Red Gravy or Red Mutton.
Due to the addition of Mathania chiles, the traditional Laal Maas from Rajasthan is a deep red color. Hence, it’s named ‘laal’ (red) and ‘maas’ (meat). But how did I think of making Laal Mass? Well, I went to Rajasthan a few years back and I was missing the food I had there during my trip. If you have ever been to the adorable state, you must know how wonderful are people, food, and culture over there. I also recalled having this delicious recipe in one of the fine restaurants in Udaipur.
So, I decided to prepare it but with my own twist. And, the best part is that this recipe is also Keto-approved. Keto Red Mutton is extremely appetizing and is a perfect burst of spices and goodness of meat and would be great to cook for dinner parties at home.
Without any further ado, let’s jump into the preparation of this lip-smacking Keto Red Mutton .
Serves – 2
Prep Time – 10 Minutes
Cook Time – 30 Minutes
Ingredients:
250 gms Mutton
1 Bay Leaf
2 tbsp Ghee or Clarified Butter
1 long Cinnamon stick
3 Cardamom
2 Cloves
3 Peppercorns
1 tbsp Ginger, finely chopped
1 tbsp Garlic, finely chopped
100 grams of Red Onions, finely sliced
1 tbsp Kashmiri Red Chili powder
100 grams of Curd
Salt, to taste
½ tsp Garam Masala Powder
1 tsp Coriander Powder
½ tsp Turmeric Powder
½ tsp Cumin Powder
½ cup Water
Chopped Coriander leaves, for garnishing
1 tsp Lemon Juice
Instructions:
1. Take a pressure cooker and heat the ghee in it. Once the ghee heats up, add whole spices, like cinnamon, bay leaf, cardamom, peppercorns, and cloves into it. After that, add sliced onions and keep sauteing until it turns light brown.
2. Add ginger and garlic to the cooker. Now, add cleaned mutton pieces and mix well. Now, put around half a cup of curd into it along with ground masala powders, such as turmeric, Kashmiri red chili powder, cumin powder, and coriander powder.
3. Add around half a cup of water to it. Don’t add more water to ensure there’s no loose gravy.
4. On pressure cooking, mutton will release its juice. You need to pressure cook mutton for around 6 to 7 whistles.
5. When you release the pressure, add garam masala powder into it, squeeze lemon juice (around half a lemon) into it, and further garnish it with coriander leaves.
