Preparation

Wash the mutton pieces thoroughly with water 3-4 times, drain the water and keep it aside.

Add the washed mutton pieces to a bowl, add 1 tbsp of ginger & garlic paste, ½ tsp of turmeric powder, little salt and mix everything really well. Marinate the mutton pieces for 20-30 minutes or at least till you peel the onions and get everything ready.

Chop the tomatoes and add it to the mixer, grind it to fine paste and keep it aside.

Method

Heat nallaennai in a kadai/pan/chatti, add cinnamon sticks and fennel seeds. Fry until nice aroma arises.

Now add the curry leaves and fry until it turns crispy.

Add the dry red chillies and fry for about 20 seconds.

Add the shallots and sauté well until it turns to light golden color.

Now add the garlic cloves and sauté well for another minute or two.

Add the marinated mutton pieces, ½ tsp of turmeric powder, very little salt and sauté well for about 4-5 minutes.

Add about 1 cup of water, give a good stir and let it come to a boil.

Now add the tomato puree and give a good mix.

Cover and cook for about 40-45 minutes or until the meat is well cooked and soft. Check and stir in between to avoid it from burning. [If the water is not enough for cooking the meat than add more water as needed]

When the meat is well cooked and attained desired consistency, add finely chopped cilantro/coriander leaves and mix well.

Finally add 1 tbsp of nallaennai/gingelly oil, give a good stir and switch off the stove.

Delicious, spicy and tempting Mutton Uppu Kari is ready to be enjoyed. Serve it how with a bowl of steam cooked white rice and enjoy.

Suggestions:

Adjust the spice level according to your family needs by reducing the red chillies or by removing the seeds from the chillies.

I have added tomato puree, but can add finely chopped tomatoes as well.

I have cooked the mutton directly for about 40-45 minutes, you can also pressure cook the marinated mutton for 2-3 whistles and proceed with the same procedure. When adding pressure cooked mutton cook only all the water evaporates and the masala is well combined.
