Mutton Roast Recipe with step by step picture. This is made with Mutton and Roasted Gram dal. Delicious spicy mutton roast kerala style.
Mutton Roast
Couple weeks back, hubby got some fresh mutton to cook. I was looking for a different recipe other than my mutton thoran, mutton chukka, mutton kuzhambu, chettinaad style gravy and mutton masala. You can check my mutton recipes here..I wanted to do a fried kind of dish. Actually i planned to cook the mutton and deep fry it. But somehow i ended up like this.
I will soon share a fried mutton recipe. This one is less fat i can say, since it is roasted in little oil. Actually the main flavouring for this mutton dish is curry leaves and fennel seeds. I added some kashmiri red chillies to make the dish turn out red.

Hi Aarthi I am a big fan of your cooking and your blog has been helping me in almost everyday's cooking and the best part is the pictures which I love so much, I am a bit lazy to read some times a whole huge paras but this is where your blog is very very special to me I can just start cooking only looking at the pictures. I am going to try this motton roast today will post pic n let you know how it came out. Why potty kadalai is added does it not reduce the spices or change the flavor at the end .. ? Thanks !
Aarthi
@Reena Balrajthat powder gives nice crispy and creamy texture to the dish. you can skip that if you dont want to

Hi, I have tried this recipe many times and it has never gone wrong. Thank you so much. I usually make a kilo of mutton for family and i always doubled all the ingredients. And it worked out fine. BUT...now i have to cook for ten of my friends and that meant getting 3kgs of mutton. But somehow....2 tbsp chilly powder and 6 pieces chilly pieces for 500g translated to 3kgs is 12 tbsp chilly powder and 36 piece of dry chilly sounds extremely scary. Please help. What do i do? 🙁
Shubha
Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe, i really loved it.
