How to prepare Indad Masala for Mutton Indad

Instructions to cook Mutton

  • You need to cook Mutton separately for this recipe. To do so, Heat a pressure cooker and add 1 tbsp of oil. We use Chekku oil/Wood pressed oils for most of our recipes, as it is good for health (more good fat)
  • Once the oil is heated, add 1 tsp of ginger-garlic paste and saute well 
  • Now add 1 Kg Mutton/Goat Meat to the cooker and mix well
  • Add a cup of water to this Mutton. The Mutton will release some water of its own too, so we don't  need to add more water. If you feel this is less you can add a half cup extra water
  • Add Salt as per taste
  • Add 1/4 tsp Garam Masala powder. Mix all the ingredients well
  • Close the pressure cooker and cook the Mutton till it is completely cooked.
  • Once the Mutton is cooked, you will see that the Mutton stock is very less in the cooker. We added less water to the pressure cooker since we don't need more stock for this recipe.

Steps to make Mutton Indad

  • Take a Kadai or wok, add ghee approx. 1-2 tbsp and let it heat
  • Add the Indad masala to the Kadai and saute well. 
  • Now, cover and cook the Indad masala, till it starts to blend with oil and the oil starts to float on top
  • Once the Indad Masala is cooked, take it in a separate container, so that it can be used later in the recipe
  • In the same Kadai, add some more ghee approx. 1 tbsp and let it heat
  • To this, add 2 cinnamon stick and 4 cloves and fry this in ghee for few secs, we need the aroma of these spices to be infused into our Ghee
  • Now, its time to add the cooked Mutton along with its stock in the Kadai.
  • Fry the Mutton on high heat till it becomes brown. Browning of Mutton gives a good flavor to the dish
  • Now, add the fried indad masala to the Mutton and mix well
  • Add Salt as per taste if required
  • Mix everything well and fry the Mutton till it reaches your semi gravy or dry consistency.
  • Your Mutton is ready to be served.
