Method

  1. Clean and cut mutton into medium pieces. Marinate with the curd, half the turmeric, and half the red chilli powder for at least 30 minutes to tenderize.
  2. Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed kadhai or deg. Add cinnamon, cardamom, and bay leaf; let them sizzle for a few seconds till fragrant.
  3. Add sliced onions and cumin seeds; saute on medium heat, stirring often, until the onions turn deep golden brown - this builds the korma's base flavour.
  4. Add ginger-garlic; saute for a minute until the raw smell disappears.
  5. Add chopped tomatoes and the remaining turmeric, red chilli powder, and coriander powder. Cook, stirring, until the tomatoes soften and oil separates from the masala.
  6. Add the marinated mutton along with the cashew nuts. Sear on high flame for 5-7 minutes, stirring, until the meat changes colour.
  7. Add enough water to cover, cover the pan, and simmer on low flame for 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mutton is fork-tender and the gravy is thick enough to coat the meat.
  8. Uncover, adjust salt, and simmer a few more minutes if the gravy needs thickening.
  9. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve hot with naan, roti, or steamed rice.
