Preparation guide for mutton korma recipe
- Heat oil in a pressure cooker, add onions and fry until golden brown. Drain the onions and set aside.
- In the same oil, fry pepper corns, cloves, cinnamon, black and green cardamom for a couple of minutes. Now add the mutton.
- Maintaining high heat, fry the meat, adding ginger garlic, yogurt, powdered masalas, salt and fried onions.
- Now pressure cook for 5-6 whistles. Remove the lid and continue to braise meat for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring constantly. Add hot water as needed.
