    Try to use boneless mutton piece and you are allowed to over cook the mutton in pressure cooker. So the meat falls off the bone, so it will be easy for you to shred it.

    Ingredients for Kothu Mutton

    For Mutton:
    • Boneless Mutton - 500 grams
    • Chilli Powder - 2 tsp
    • Turmeric powder - 1 tsp
    • Salt to taste
    • Water - ½ cup
    For Curry:
    • Coconut Oil - ¼ cup
    • Fennel Seeds / Saunf / Sombu - 2 tsp
    • Onion - 2 large sliced thinly
    • Green Chilli - 3 slit
    • Ginger Garlic Paste - 2 tblspn
    • Curry leaves a handful
    • Chilli Powder - 1 tsp
    • Coriander powder - 1 tblspn
    • Garam Masala Powder - 1 tblspn
