Cookd masalas for mutton kidney
Method
Split the kidneys and remove the white core and membrane. Cut them into small pieces and rinse with 1 litre water until the water looks clear, then drain. Peel and thinly slice the onion, slit the green chillies and finely chop the tomato. Rinse the curry leaves and coriander leaves, then chop the coriander leaves.
Add the kidney, turmeric powder and water to a kadai. Boil on medium flame for 8 minutes until the kidney is partly cooked, then drain the water.
Heat oil in the same kadai on medium flame for 1 minute until hot. Add cinnamon, fennel seeds and curry leaves, then fry for 1 minute until the fennel seeds crackle. Add onion and green chilli, and fry for 5 to 6 minutes until the onion turns light golden.
Add ginger garlic paste and tomato. Fry on medium flame for 4 minutes until the tomato becomes soft and the raw smell goes. Add turmeric powder, Cookd Madurai Chukka Masala, pepper powder and salt. Fry for 1 minute until the raw smell of the spices fades.
Add the boiled kidney and mix well. Cover and cook on low flame for 12 minutes, stirring twice, until the kidney is cooked through and no pink part remains.
Open the kadai and roast on medium flame for 4 to 5 minutes until all the moisture dries and the masala coats the kidney. Add coriander leaves, mix and switch off.
