#meetthemeat Mutton Rassa is an aromat coconut based, Goat Meat Curry from the Maharashtrian cuisine. It is generally relished with vade, which are made using a mixture of certain flours and hence the name Mutton Vade.

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

To begin making the Mutton Rassa, first wash the mutton throughly under clean sufficient water. Cut medium size pieces and set aside.

* Step 2

Grind together the coriander leaves, green chillies, ginger and garlic using little water to get a smooth paste.

* Step 3

Marinate the mutton with this paste alongwith the curds, turmeric powder and the garam masala. Set aside to marinate for about half an hour.

* Step 4

Transfer it to a pressure pan and add about 3/4 cup water to it. Mix well. Now add 1/4 cup more only if needed. The mutton itself releases water during the cooking process.

* Step 5

Cook on high flame for 3 whistles and then on low flame for about 10-12 minutes. Switch off the flame and let the pressure release naturally.

* Step 6

To check if the mutton is well cooked, place a piece of cooked mutton in some clean water in a bowl. Tear apart the piece into two using your fingers. If the mutton piece comes apart easily, it is well cooked.

* Step 7

In the meantime, heat a kadhai and add the oil for roasting to it. Add to the hot oil, all the whole spices mentioned for roasting and saute.

* Step 8

As soon as they splutter, transfer the spices to a bowl and set aside.

* Step 9

Now, to the same kadhai, add the sliced onions saute till transparent.

* Step 10

Add the grated fresh coconut and roast the mixture for about 5-6 minutes on low to medium flame stirring constantly.

* Step 11

Add to this the grated dry coconut and mix. Roast the mixture for another 5-7 minutes till the coconut is browned (you get a lovely roasted aroma).

* Step 12

Switch off the flame and cool the mixture.

* Step 13

Further, grind it in a mixer grinder to get a smooth paste, using water as required. Keep aside till further use.

* Step 14

To make the mutton rassa, heat a large kadhai and add the oil to it. When it heats up, add the whole spices to it.

* Step 15

Next, as they splutter, add the finely chopped onions and saute. Add a pinch of salt for faster cooking

* Step 16

When the onions start browning a bit from the edges, add the ginger garlic paste and mix well.

* Step 17

Saute till the onions are slightly browned and add to it the turmeric powder. Mix well.

* Step 18

Next, add the ginger garlic paste and saute for a while.

* Step 19

Add the chopped tomato and cook further till the mixture is well cooked and starts coming together like a sticky ball.

* Step 20

Add the rest of the spice powders and mix well.

* Step 21

Saute for a while and add to it the cooked mutton pieces alongwith all the water from the pressure pan.

* Step 22

Mix well and add to it the ground, roasted coconut paste, salt to taste and mix. Add more water if required to get a medium thick gravy.

* Step 23

Bring to a boil and then simmer on low flame for about five minutes more.

* Step 24

Switch off the flame and transfer it to a serving bowl.
