Ingredients
Mutton and Spices
- 250 gm Mutton licious brand recommended
- 3 tbsp Pepper black
- 1/8 tsp Turmeric Powder
- 1 tsp Salt
Aromatics and Liquids
- 1 cup Shallots diced
- 1 cup Curry Leaves
- 2 Chillies green, slit
- 2 tbsp Coconut Oil
- 2 tbsp Water
Finishing Spice
- 1/2 tsp Garam Masala
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the mutton, black pepper, turmeric powder, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
- Add the coconut oil and water to a 2-liter pressure cooker. This helps create steam for even cooking.

- Add the marinated mutton to the pressure cooker.
- Close the pressure cooker lid securely. Cook on high heat for 10-15 whistles. The cooking time may vary depending on your pressure cooker and the tenderness of the mutton. If you notice a slightly smoky smell, turn off the heat immediately.
- Allow the pressure to release naturally. Once the pressure is released, open the lid carefully.
- Mix in the garam masala. This adds a final layer of flavor and aroma.
- Serve the mutton chukka hot. For a refreshing side, consider a salad of microgreens, cucumber, and onions.
