Mutton Curry with AEVO Oil

Ingredients:

• 1 kg mutton, cut into pieces

• 3 tablespoons AEVO avocado oil

• 2 large onions, finely chopped

• 2 tomatoes, pureed

• 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste

• 2-3 green chilies, slit

• 1 cup plain yogurt

• 1 teaspoon turmeric powder

• 1 tablespoon red chili powder

• 1 tablespoon coriander powder

• 1 teaspoon cumin powder

• 1 teaspoon garam masala powder

• 2-3 bay leaves

• 4-5 cloves

• 4-5 green cardamom pods

• 1 cinnamon stick

• 1 cup water

• Salt to taste

• Fresh coriander leaves for garnish

Cooking Method:-

1. Marinate the Mutton:-

• In a large bowl, combine the mutton pieces, yogurt, turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, and salt. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.

2. Prepare the Curry:-

• Heat AEVO avocado oil in a large heavy-bottomed pan or pressure cooker over medium heat.

• Add bay leaves, cloves, cardamom pods, and cinnamon stick. Sauté for a minute until fragrant.

• Add the finely chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.

• Add the ginger-garlic paste and green chilies. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the raw smell disappears.

• Add the tomato puree and cook until the oil starts to separate from the mixture.

3. Cook the Mutton:-

• Add the marinated mutton to the pan and mix well with the onion-tomato mixture.

• Cook on medium-high heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mutton is browned and the spices are well coated.

• Add water, stir, and bring to a boil.

4. Pressure Cook or Simmer:-

• If using a pressure cooker, cover and cook on medium heat for about 20-25 minutes (or for 4-5 whistles) until the mutton is tender.

• If using a regular pan, cover and simmer on low heat for 1-1.5 hours, or until the mutton is tender and the curry thickens. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

5. Finish the Dish:-

• Once the mutton is cooked, add garam masala powder and adjust salt if needed. Mix well and simmer for another 5 minutes.

• Garnish with fresh coriander leaves.

6. Serve:-

• Serve hot with steamed rice, naan, or roti.
   

Notes:-

• AEVO Oil:- The use of AEVO avocado oil adds a rich, buttery flavor and healthy monounsaturated fats to the dish.

• Spice Level:- Adjust the amount of green chilies and red chili powder according to your spice preference.

• Cooking Time:- The cooking time may vary depending on the cut and quality of the mutton. Ensure the meat is tender and well-cooked before serving.
