Cooking Instructions for Mutton Keema Recipe
In a pressure cooker, heat oil over medium to low flame.
Add bay leaf, cinnamon stick, cloves, green cardamom, and shah jeera. Sauté until a nice aroma is released.
Add curry leaves and coriander leaves. Sauté for a few more minutes to let the flavors steep.
Add sliced onions and sauté until they are soft and change color.
Add green chillies, ginger and garlic paste, and sauté until the raw smell disappears.
Add chopped tomatoes and cook for a few minutes.
Add turmeric powder and salt. Mix well and cook for 1 minute.
Add red chilli powder, coriander powder, garam masala powder, and mutton masala powder. Mix well and cook on low flame for 5 minutes until oil separates.
Add washed and drained keema and roast for a few minutes on medium to low flame.
Add water, mix well, and adjust the salt. Cover with lid and cook for 3 whistles.
Allow the pressure to release naturally, then open the lid.
If the curry is watery, cook on low flame for a few more minutes to adjust the consistency.
Finally, add chopped coriander leaves and serve hot with rice, roti, naan, or biryani.
Tips & Tricks
If cooking in a kadai, cook for 30 minutes on low flame and stir occasionally.
Use fresh minced mutton: Ensure the mutton keema is fresh and preferably with a little fat for extra flavor. Fat in the keema helps it stay moist and enhances the taste.
Wash the keema properly: Rinse the keema well in cold water and drain thoroughly before cooking. This helps remove any excess blood and impurities, ensuring the keema cooks evenly.
When cooking keema in a pressure cooker, avoid adding too much water. Keema tends to release water during cooking, so use just a little to prevent the dish from becoming watery. Usually, 1/4th cup of water is sufficient.
For an added layer of richness, use ghee along with oil to cook the keema. The ghee enhances the depth of flavor and gives the keema a traditional touch.
