Mutton Sukka Varuval

One of my friends used to bring this for lunch when I was in college. My friends and I liked it a lot. We used to bug my friend to get it often for us. When I prepared, it was finished in no time. I bet kids would love it.

Step 1
Cut mutton in to small pieces and wash it. Marinate this with the items given in ” To Marinate ” section for at least 1 hr. Powder the items given in ” To Powder ” section. Chop the Onion, tomatoes given in “To Pressure Cook ” section.

Step 2
In a wok heat Oil, when hot, add onion and saute well till it turns golden brown. Add the curry leaves, and finely chopped garlic. Fry for 1 min. Add red chili powder, coriander powder and Mutton Masala. Fry for 1 min. Drain the water from the cooked mutton and add it. Allow it to boil till all the water evaporates.

Step 3
Add the mutton and fry till it becomes crunch dry in medium flame. Taste for salt and add if needed. Stir often to avoid burning.
- Over night marination of mutton in refrigerator makes it more juicy and flavorful.
- I normally drain the excess fat in the mutton by boiling it in hot water for about 10-15. After this marination can be done. I never felt the difference in taste, but if you are looking for the original taste, skip this step.
- Fry need not be done until crunchy, it can be stopped when the oil separates and the mutton is well coated.
(*) Goes excellent with Curd Rice.



Looks Awesomw!!!!!!!! Gotta try this
I tried this recipe.. it was excellent..My Hubby came home for a break n said d whole house was smelling lovely…
thank u so much .. I enjoyed makin it..
Thanks Sonu for getting back to me. I am so glad that u guys loved it !! Keep coming !!
This is very nice. I was actually looking for a typical mutton sukka that we find in Madurai evening mutton stalls. Thank you very much.
You should mention at what point you add salt.
I liked your recipe but, I made some modifications though.
I fried the onions before i pressure cooked them with mutton. And I also took out tomatoes. Mutton cooks well without tomatoes.
Have a nice day.
Thanks for letting me know Sankar. Guess I forgot to mention, will modify the recipe. Also noted the tips !!
Fantastic flavors in this delicious mutton dish!
