Cooking Instructions
- 1
Red meat(beef or mutton) boneless, cook in 5 litres of water in a large pot with 8 cloves garlic,1 inch piece chopped ginger, salt to taste, I use 2 teaspoon,till tender and half the broth is left, take out the meat and set the broth aside for later use
- 2
Mixed lentils (500 gms gram lentil skinned and split,250 grams black lentil skinned and split,125 gms green lentil skinned and split) soaked over night and then boiled in a large pot with 5 litres water including the meat stock,till very soft and excess water dried, alternatively use pressure cooker and follow the instructions of the manufacturer
- 3
Blend the lentils in blender to make a smooth paste, in the original recipe you have to use a hand masher to mash lentils well when soft and still on heat but too time consuming, the trick is not to over blend so that chunks of lentil remain and the paste is NOT very slimy and smooth
- 4
Wheat(soaked overnight and then cooked with 2-3litres of water till soft and water dried, blend similarly as the lentils, alternatively use pressure cooker
- 5
Thinly slice onion after cutting halfway, fried in shallow pain with enough oil to cover them well, till brown and crispy. take onion out from oil spread on kitchen towel, to prevent them from being soggy. use 3/4th of onions for frying meat, rest for topping
- 6
Heat the oil in a large non-stick pot,use the left over from fried onion as mentioned above add garlic and ginger paste till golden, add 3/4 th of the fried onions,all the dry spices including the salt to taste,I use 1 tablespoon,continuously stirring for 5 min, add the tomatoes,fry till tomatoes are soft, add the cooked boneless meat(chopped in a chopper)cook for 10 min while stirring and sprinkling water to prevent sticking and over browning, till oil separates and a nice curry is formed
- 7
Add the lentil and wheat paste n batches and vigourously stirring, cook for 30 to 45 min stirring at intervals till a nice slow dropping consistency is achieved
- 8
Water can be added at intervals if the mixture is too thick
- 9
Don't forget to use cooking hand gloves and apron as the mixture bubbles up while cooking
- 10
Serve hot with 1/4 th of the fried onions, fresh coriander, ginger and lemon
- 11
Equally good on its own or with baked flat bread(naan)
- 12
Enjoy your meal

Mutton Haleem Mutton Haleem
#Post14 - This is a very popular Hyderabadi dish during the holy month of Ramadan. It can be prepared with either mutton or chicken. But now a days, you come across vegetarian haleem too. Traditionally it is slow cooked for many hours on an open flame. But I tried the simplest method - Pressure cooking method. It is quite a rich dish with loads of dry fruits and ghee, but it is equally nutritious as it contains various types of lentils and oats (traditionally wheat is used). This delicacy is served with a dash of lime, fried onions, chopped coriander-mint leaves and dry fruits. #goldenapron Bethica Das -

Haleem from Rib Roast Haleem from Rib Roast
During the Holidays time, lots of families are cooking Rib Roast of Beef. Rib Roast is quite expensive. Usually a Rib Roast of 8 Ribs (with Bones) could cost about $180 to $200.00 It does make a great meal for 10-12 people. The Butcher will always trim the fat and seperate the Bones but Tie it together with the roast for Flavor. When your roast is done, you would normally carve the roast and serve your guest and keep the Bones for later soups and stews. I have made this recipe for Haleem from the Ribs Bones and the meat around the bones. ChefLuciano@lucianoretired -
