Mutton and Cabbage Curry Recipe

The mutton and cabbage curry recipe – according to Amma – was a recipe necessary only for fatty meats like neck or shoulder mutton cuts.  Although this started out as one of Amma’s recipes for what she called ‘odd pieces’, it became one of the most popular dishes in our home and one of Amma’s signature recipes with the addition of her dumplings. I’ve opted for plain mutton and cabbage  in the recipe shared below. In this recipe mutton pieces and cabbage are simmered in a thick masala infused gravy made from onions and tomatoes.

how to cook mutton and cabbage curry

Similar to preparing lamb biryani and Dhal Ghost , the meat for mutton and cabbage curry should be ‘sealed’ by browning at high temperature. Use remaining oil from this process to fry the onions and spices. The cabbage should be sliced fine and long to create thin strips.
