Indian Non-Veg curry | Bengal Inspired | Festive food 

Indian Currys are very famous in all over the world. There are many types of curries are made in India. Mutton Curry is a delicious Indian Curry. It is made in almost every non veg family and served on many occasions. As a non vegetarian, I also love Mutton. In this recipe, I followed Bengali style cooking. In Bengali style, the process of making Mutton Curry is just like the process of Chicken Curry. I used every ingredient of a typical Bengali Mutton Curry recipe in it. I used powdered masala today like cumin powder, coriander powder or red chili powder.
But I used dried red chili paste also it adds a nice flavor and spiciness to the curry. Bengalis marinate the Mutton with all ingredients even with mustard oil every time before start cooking. It is the most important part of this recipe. And potatoes are the best part of this recipe also known as 'Aluu diye mangsher jhol'. End of the cooking the juicy potatoes are going to so eye pleasing and mouthwatering. Bengalis fell in love with these potatoes every time.

Method
  • Cut onions in thin slices and also, discard the hard white part. Then cut tomatoes in cubes. 
  • Now the main part of the recipe is that marination. Take the Mutton along with the bones (bones add amazing flavor to the curry please use it) to a mixing bowl. Now add one by one-half of the onion slices (reserve the rest of half for frying), ginger paste, garlic paste, dried red chili paste, cumin powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, dried red chili paste ( for making chili paste soak the dried red chilies in hot water for 10 minutes and then make a smooth paste and use it), 4 spoon mustard oil and finally add salt to the mutton. Now mix all these ingredients using your hands. It is very useful to use hands for this mixing for best result. After mixing properly marinate it for at least 30 minutes or more. Proper marination is very necessary.
  • Meanwhile cut the potatoes in half and we got then 6 half pieces of potatoes for each people we serve.
  • Now add rest of the oil to a frying pan and add bay leaves stir for 10 seconds then add rest of the half onion slices. Fry onions till brown. Then add chopped tomatoes to it and fry more 3-4 minutes. This time the flame should be on medium low. Now onion slices and tomatoes are fried well then add the marinated Mutton and potato pieces to it. Fry for 4-5 minutes on high flame ( do not cover this time).
  • After 5 minutes add water (2 cup) to it mix well. Cover and cook for 60 minutes with taking several breaks to stir the Mutton otherwise it would not be cooked properly and might be stick to the pan. This is slow cooking process.
  • After reduce all water Mutton is soft and well cooked now. Then fry the Mutton along with all masalas till light brown on medium flame and after 1-2 minutes stir continuously till oil separates. 
  • About 15-20 minutes of slow cooking Mutton will be tender now on that position it is called 'Kosha mangsho'. But we are going to make curry so we add hot water as required I add 2 cup and cook for more few minutes until the curry becomes thicken. This time cook without any cover. 
  • After that potatoes are tender and completely juicy now. Last of all add black pepper. Mix well. Mutton curry is ready. Garnish with some chopped coriander leaves.
