Lucknow-style Mutton Korma
Celebrity chef Ranveer Brar’s recipe is bursting with the flavours of Lucknow. This is how you go about making it.
Prepare a curd mixture in a bowl by adding 1 ½ cups of curd, 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste, 1 tablespoon degi mirch, ½ teaspoon of turmeric powder and coriander powder, and ¼ teaspoon cumin powder. Mix it all well, and keep it aside for further use.
In a shallow pan, dry roast ½ tablespoon black peppercorns, 5-6 black cardamoms, 5-6 cloves, 4-5 green cardamoms, 2 bay leaves, 1-inch cinnamon stick, 1 mace and salt as per taste. Dry-roast on a medium flame for 4-5 minutes and transfer it into a grinder to make a fine powder. Keep aside.
Begin with the cooking process by heating 2-3 tablespoons each of ghee and oil in a handi. Add a 1-inch cinnamon stick, 2 bay leaves and 2 black cardamoms, and let the dry spices splutter. Add 750 grams of mutton and saute for 2-4 minutes on medium flame. Slice four onions and salt (as per taste) until the onions turn light brown in colour. Then, add the prepared curd mixture. Saute for 5-10 minutes or until the masalas are cooked. Add 4-5 cups of water, close the lid, and cook until mutton is tender. Watch it here:
