Ingredients
• 500 gms Mutton (bone-in)
• 300 gms Potatoes (cubed)
• 200 gms Green Beans
• 250 gms Carrots
• 300 gms Cauliflower Florets
• 250 gms Pearl Onions
• ¼ cup Oil
• 1 tsp Shahi Zeera (caraway seeds)
• 1 cup Onions (finely chopped)
• 5-6 tbsp Whole Wheat Flour (aata)
• Salt to taste
• 2 tsp Black Pepper Powder
• 2-2½ tbsp Vinegar (adjust to taste)
• Cilantro (for garnish)
Pre-Procedure
1. Pressure Cook Mutton: Cook mutton with 5-6 cups of water for 4 whistles. Reserve the stock.
2. Boil Vegetables: Boil potatoes, green beans, carrots, and cauliflower in 8 cups of water. Keep the stock.
Procedure
1. Prepare Base
• Heat oil in a thick-bottomed pot. Add Shahi Zeera and let it splutter.
• Add chopped onions and sauté for 5 minutes.
• Stir in pearl onions, cover, and cook until soft and tender.
2. Build the Stew
• Add ginger-garlic paste and sauté for 2 minutes. Mix in black pepper powder.
• Reduce heat to low, add wheat flour, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until fragrant. The mixture should have a paste-like texture. Add more oil if needed.
3. Incorporate Stock
• Gradually pour 2 cups of cold water into the flour mixture, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Cook until it reaches a smooth, paste-like consistency (about 5-7 minutes).
4. Combine Ingredients
• Add the pressure-cooked mutton with its stock and the boiled vegetables with their stock to the pot.
• Bring everything to a boil over high heat.
5. Season and Adjust
• Add salt and vinegar to taste. Reduce heat and let it simmer for 7-10 minutes until the stew reaches a thick soup-like consistency.
• If the stew is too thin, sauté additional flour, mix with cold water, and add it to the boiling stew for desired thickness.
6. Serve
• Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot with Sheermal, dinner rolls, or bread.
Serving Suggestions
Pair this rich stew with warm Sheermal or any bread of your choice. It’s a perfect main course for cold evenings and hearty family meals.
