How to make Mutton Sukha

Step 1 Marinate the mutton pieces
After removing the mutton fat, soak the mutton chunks in some lukewarm water with a pinch of turmeric and salt. Then drain the excess water. In the meantime, mix all the whole spices and grind them together in a blender. Marinate the mutton pieces in this for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.

Step 2 Boil the marinated mutton pieces
Put a pan on medium flame and add water. Once the water starts boiling, add the marinated mutton pieces and boil until half-cooked. Add red chilli powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala powder and salt.

Step 3 Fry the dal & saute with the spices
Cook till the mutton pieces are tender and water has almost evaporated. Keep aside. Heat oil in a different pan. Fry the dal until golden. Add cinnamon, cardamom, cloves and star anise. Fry for a minute or two.

Step 4 Add onion, green chillies, tomatoes, curry leaves & mutton
Add the onions and green chillies. Fry until onions are golden brown. Add the tomatoes and curry leaves. Cook for another 2 minutes and add the mutton pieces.

Step 5 Cook until oil separates & the dish becomes dry
Now add pepper powder and increase the flame to high. Cook until oil starts to separate and the mixture becomes dry. Transfer it to a serving dish and serve hot with rice or roti.
