Instructions
  1. Mix the mutton and all the ingredients required to par-cook the meat. Add this mix to a pressure cooker and cook for about 2 to 3 whistles. Turn off and release the pressure before you open the cooker. Instead of using a pressure cooker, you can also choose to cook the mutton in a covered pot and cook until tender. This would take about 30 to 40 minutes to cook on medium-high heat.
  2. Heat 3 tbsp of oil in a large pan or Kadai. Add in the cumin seeds and 1 sprig of curry leaves.
  3. Once you hear the crackling sound, add the onions, green chillies, ginger, and garlic. Fry till the onions get a nice brown colour.
  4. Add red chilli, garam masala, turmeric, and coriander powder. Saute till masalas are cooked. Add in the par-cooked meat with gravy and salt.
  5. Cook this on medium-high heat and reduce the water. Keep tossing and stirring the mutton to coat it well.
  6. Once the dish is dry, add in the remaining curry leaves, green chillies, and oil.
  7. Increase heat and nicely roast the meat well. Sear the pieces till all the liquid has dried up. Check for seasoning and add if needed.
  8. Add black pepper and lemon juice. Remove from heat.
  9. Serve this tasty mutton varuval recipe with rotis or rice and lemon wedges.
Recipe Notes

Recipe Notes:

  • Ensure you par-cook the meat well. 
  • You can also make this recipe using lamb. However, lamb cooks fast, so one whistle should be enough when par-cooking lamb.
