Indian Mutton Curry

Description:
I learned this from my mother-in-law. Okay na daw ang lasa sabi ng husband ko. Tuwa ko lang!

Ingredients:
1/2 kg. Meat (your choice : lamb or pork)
3 tbsp. Cooking Oil
1/4 cup of Grated Coconut
2 tsp. Masala Powder
2 big pcs. of Red Dried Chilis
1 tsp. Ginger-Garlic-Chili Paste (pwede ding fresh pero dapat chopped: 4 cloves of garlic, 4 strips of gingers, 2 pcs. green chilis)
1 pc. Red Onion (katamtamang laki lang)
1 pc. Tomato (katamtamang laki din)
4 pcs. Cloves
1/2″ Cinnamon Bark / Stick
A Pinch of Cumin Seeds
5 pcs. Pepper Corn
A pinch of Fresh Coriander Leaves
1 cube Maggi or Knorr Beef
2 pcs. Sliced Potatoes (optional)
1/2 cup of Water

Directions:
1. Slightly burn mo sa apoy yung 2 pcs. Red Dried Chilis para lumutong, wag mo susunugin ha? Basta masayaran ng apoy.

2. In a small pan, ilagay mo yung grated coconut, tapos pag medyo nainitan na, ilagay mo yung Masala Powder. Lutuin mo hanggang maghalo na sila.

3. Tapos i-blend mo yung 1 & 2 kasama ng Cloves, Cumin Seeds, Cinnamon Bark and Pepper Corn.

4. Kung meron kang pressure cooker yun ang gamitin mo para mas madali lumambot esp. pag lamb ang lulutuin mo. Sa cooker, ilagay mo na yung Oil. Then Onions, pag brown na, lagay mo na yung na-blend mo kanina. Saute mo lang for like 3 minutes.

5. Then Ginger-Garlic-Chili Paste. Gisahin mong maigi para malasa.

6. Lagay mo na yung tomato, dapat matunaw yung tomatoes para maging sauce. Slow fire lang.

7. Lagay mo na yung meat. Isunod mo yung potatoes kung gusto mong lagyan.

8. Ilagay mo na yung Maggi Cube.

9. Then add water.

10. Let it boil for a while. Lagay mo na din yung fresh coriander leaves. Pag pressure cooker gamit mo, takpan mo na then mga 4-5 whistles lang, luto na yun. But if not, wait till the meat is tender. Pag ganito you might need more water.
