How to cook

Mutton marinade

Mix all the ingredients well, ensuring that the mutton cubes are thoroughly coated.
Marinate for at least 30 mins — the longer, the better!

Cook the mutton

Heat a saucepan or pan (with a lid) with 2 tbsp of oil over medium-high heat.
Sear the mutton cubes on every side until they’re browned. Set aside.
In the same pan, reduce to medium-low heat and fry the garlic, ginger and onions until the onions turn translucent.
Add in the curry leaves and black pepper to fry for 1 min.
Add in the mutton cubes and soy sauce and mix well.
Lastly, add in water to deglaze the bottom of the pan.
Bring it to a boil, then reduce it to a simmer. Cover for 45 mins to keep simmering or until the mutton is tender.
Serve in a bowl and garnish with extra coriander and sliced chilli.
