The Magic in our lives - Mum's Cooking!!!

Home cooking!! How comfortable does it sound, especially when you are talking about your mum's cooking. There is this warmth in her cooking which makes you feel loved...protected...among many other things. Then it does not matter whether you are a teenager or a grown up woman. Mum's cooking is sometimes all you need when you are having a bad day(s). 

The recipe that I am about to share here is one of Mum's. The beauty of the recipe which I love so much is the sheer simplicity of the ingredients & method of cooking & yet full of flavor and so delicious. Go ahead, give it a try, you won't be disappointed :)


You will need:
500 gms of fresh & good quality mutton
5 fresh & ripe & juicy tomatoes
3 green chillies, slit in the middle
1 cinnamon stick
salt & water

Firstly, put the meat & cinnamon & salt in a pressure cooker. Add sufficient water in it & pressure cook till the meat is tender.
Meanwhile, in a different pot, take some oil & once the oil is hot enough, add in the thinly sliced tomatoes. Cook on a low flame till the tomatoes have liquidized completely. Now add in the cooked mutton, discard the cinnamon and add in the stock as well. Adjust the salt. Add in the slit green chillies. Now let it cook on a low flame till the water has been reduced to a little more than half of the stock quantity.

Now, this gravy is supposed to be of a little soupy consistency but not really watered down. The Kadhai Gosht is best when eaten with normal chapati or roti. No fancy shwancy of naan or bread or anything of the sorts.

Happy Eating :)
