Rajasthani Laal Maas Recipe / Red Mutton Curry Recipe

I came across this recipe through david rocco’s cooking show. I fell in love with it because of its simplicity. It calls for few simple spices and spice powders. It turns out so yummy and so beautiful to look at it as well. The bright red colour with a thin layer of ghee floating over it makes it so appetizing..

      The color is from the oil settling on the top after a rest period. If you stirred it up and resuspended the oil the color would return to a creamy yellow.

    @AnonymousIt is because those cooking pictures are taken at night without any flash and the main presentation pics are taken in the morning. Hence the difference.

    P.S. Please avoid giving rude comments. Comment with some manners.

    Hi Aarthi – You are doing a wonderful job. It takes patience to capture so many pics and write articulate recipes and to do it day after day, it certainly requires appreciation.

    Please refrain from addressing those filthy comments. Just ignore.

    I just want to make sure you are appreciated.

    – Kay

    Have tried this one. Just to add that color and taste comes from Kashmiri Mirch and Dahi (Curd) that you use. Super delicious.

    Hi.. What I do is,

    Use Mutton from younger animal.. Meat is more tender..
    After washing this meat, I marinate it overnight with curd and powder spices as mentioned in your recipe… I feel that the curd tenderises the meat further and let's it soak in the flavours… Result,.. Meat so tender it melts in the mouth..

    Those asking why the colour has turned red its because after cooking the Kashmir chili powder gives that colour to the fat / ghee making the dish appear red…
    Happens with my Pork Vindaloo too 😄

    This looks great, I am sure would taste heavenly too. But this is not rajasthani Laal Maans. You need to add cloves & clove powder, there should be no corainder powder. Make chilli paste using mathania chillies 7 add. Add ghee garlic tadhka in end. Also add smoke (dhungar) in the end.

    Red colour is from the Kashmiri chilli powder. I use the same in chicken tikka to achieve the right colour and spicy ness all in one. No artificial colours for me…

    Hi Aarti,

    I followed your recipe and used almost all the ingredient listed except for ghee, (which I did not have ), I used oil.
    You were right, the Kashmiri chilli powder gave the curry the most beautiful red colour !
    My husband, my 2 guests loved it 🙂
    Thank you very much for sharing this recipe.
    The curry turned out absolutely delicious!!!!!
