Mutton Shinwari
Description
This recipe begins by heating olive oil in a large pan before adding salted mutton to brown on high heat, sealing in juices. Water is added, and the meat simmers covered for up to an hour until mostly cooked and water reduces. Ginger and garlic pastes are introduced for aromatic depth, followed by halved tomatoes placed face down in the pan and cooked until their skins can be removed and the oil separates from the sauce, indicating richness.
Green chilies and black pepper are added for spice and warmth, and finally, yogurt is stirred in carefully to avoid curdling, contributing creaminess and subtle tanginess. Julienned ginger and chopped coriander garnish provide fresh and spicy notes. The dish is commonly served with homemade naan to complement the hearty, flavorful mutton mixture.
