Steps

1

Combine the salt, pepper 4 tbsp curry powder, the sliced onion, garlic, scotch bonnet pepper & a couple of sprigs of thyme in a bowl.

Add the mutton to the curry mix, coat thoroughly and then leave to marinate for at least 4 hours or preferably over night in a fridge.

In a large frying pan, add the oil, separate the mutton from the onions and pepper then brown the meat before transfering to a large heavy bottomed pot. You will probably need to do this in batches.

Once the meat is browned, add 2 cups of boiling water and the fresh thyme, then bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about an hour.

Next add the chopped onion, the sliced onions and pepper and 2 more cups of water. Bring to the boil and then add more curry powder to taste and the cubed potatoes. Throw in more fresh thyme if you like.

Simmer on a low heat until mutton is tender and serve with rice 'n' peas or basmati rice.
