I am up with a special curry from chettinad, i love their cuisine, they are spicy, flavourful, full of freshly roasted masala and spice powders. This Chettinad Mutton or Lamb Chettinad is a classic south indian curry originating from Chettinad region of India. Chettinad cuisine is perhaps the most renowned thing in the Tamil Nadu. Most of the dishes are eaten with rice and rice based accompaniments such as dosais, appams, idiyappams, adais and idlis.

Instructions to make Mutton Chettinaad Gravy:
  1. Dry roast the coriander seeds, fennel seeds, cumin seeds, 2 green cardamom pods, red chillies, 1 cinnamon stick, pepper corns and half the curry leaves in a kadai or a pan over medium heat till they let their aromas out.
  2. Let them cool for a bit and blend them into a fine powder using a blender or mixer grinder.
  3. Then blend the coconut, fennel seeds and poppy seeds into a fine paste using little amount of water.
  4. In a pressure cooker add the oil and ghee. Once hot, add the cumin seeds, fennel seeds, curry leaves, cinnamon stick and cloves. Let them splatter. Then add the green chillies, garlic cloves and shallots.
  5. Once the onions turn translucent, add the ginger garlic paste and a pinch of salt. Sauté till the raw smell of the ginger garlic paste is gone.
  6. Then add the chopped tomatoes, turmeric powder, bay leaf, a pinch of salt and the finely grounded spice powder. Cook till the tomatoes are mushy and oil starts to separate.
  7. Add the mutton to the mixture along with some salt. Mix it and coat well with the masala. Add water till the mutton is completely submerged. Pressure cook it for 10 whistles or for 35 mins till the mutton is tender.
  8. After the pressure from the cooker is released, add the ground coconut paste to the mutton. Check for salt and add if required. Then add the chopped coriander leaves and let it simmer on a medium low flame for about 15-20 mins.
  9. Add water if required depending on the consistency you require. I let it sit on the flame for another 15 mins and evaporated the remaining water till it became a thick gravy.

I have heard people telling chettinad mutton gravy will be very spicy. But the real fact is that in chettinad the ladies are very conscious not to make it very spicy. While seasoning though many items are used, a very small piece of each item will be used.
