  • 4 Green Chillies

  • Add the lamb/mutton and then cook for 10 minutes on high heat until the mutton changes colour (See Note 1).
  • Add the water then cover with a lid and cook on medium heat for 40-45 minutes until the mutton is 80% cooked and the majority of the water has dried up.

Notes

Note 1 - The more you brown the meat, the more flavour you will get.
Note 2 - Make sure to mix every 5-10 minutes, so the curry doesn’t stick to the pan
Note 3 - Remove the stalk, it will be easier to peel off the skin. You can leave the skin on but it tastes much better without it.
