Cookd masalas for mutton
Method
Get ready by rinsing the rice until the water is mostly clear. Clean the mutton and cut it into small cubes. Roughly chop one onion; finely chop the other onion, garlic, beans and spring onion; slit the green chillies; and cut the carrot and capsicum into small cubes.
Add the mutton, roughly chopped onion, ginger garlic paste, turmeric, salt and water to a pressure cooker. Pressure cook on medium flame for 4 whistles, then let the pressure release on its own. Open the cooker and check that the mutton is soft with no raw-looking centre. Remove and shred the mutton, and reserve the cooking liquid.
Add the rinsed rice, water and salt to a pot. Cover and cook on medium flame for 12 to 15 minutes until the water is absorbed and the rice is cooked with separate grains. Spread the rice on a wide plate and cool it for 15 minutes until it reaches room temperature.
Heat the oil in a wide kadai on high flame for 1 minute. Add the garlic and green chilli, then fry for 1 minute until the raw smell reduces. Add the finely chopped onion and fry for 3 to 4 minutes until it turns light golden.
Add the carrot, beans, capsicum, Cookd Fried Rice Masala, soy sauce and salt. Stir-fry on high flame for 3 to 4 minutes until the vegetables are cooked but still slightly firm and the raw smell of the masala is gone.
Add the cooled cooked rice and shredded mutton. Toss gently on high flame for 4 to 5 minutes until everything is mixed and hot. Add the black pepper and toss once more.
Add the spring onion and toss on high flame for 1 minute. Switch off when the rice is hot and the grains are separate.
