Mutton i.e. goat meat has a lot of health benefits, which is why it has a high demand. The low levels of saturated fats and cholesterol combined with it’s high iron and protein content makes goat meat a good choice for anyone looking for a healthy red meat.
We can find quite a lot of mutton dishes prepared by different communities in India. One such mutton recipe from Maharashtra is Grilled Mutton Chops. As mutton cannot be easily cooked on a griddle, the chop pieces need to be pre cooked before grilling. This also helps all the spices to seep into the flesh and the grilled chops turn out delicious!

Steps

5 min

1

To make the Mutton Chops, first thoroughly wash the chop pieces under clean water and set aside to drain.
2

When all the water has drained away, transfer to a mixing bowl.
3

Grind together the ginger, garlic and the green chilli to get a smooth paste.
4

In another bowl, mix together, the ginger garlic green chilli paste, curds, all the spice powders and salt to taste.
5

Apply this mixture to the mutton chop pieces, such that each chop is completely coated by the marinade. Keep aside for about an hour.
6

After an hour, transfer all the chops along with the marinade to a pressure pan. Without adding any water, cook for 3 whistles on high heat and then on low heat for an additional 5 - 7 minutes.
7

When the pressure goes down, open the lid and check whether the mutton chops are fully cooked.
8

Transfer these cooked chops to a plate and reserve the water released by the chops, in the pan itself.
9

Switch on the flame again and cook on high flame, to thicken this reserved water into a thick sauce.
10

Dissolve the rice flour in water and add it to the boiling sauce and mix well.
11

As soon as the sauce starts thickening, check seasoning. Adjust any spice powders or salt, if required at this stage.
12

Transfer the chop pieces back to the pan and coat well with the thick sauce. Switch off the flame and set aside till further use.
13

In another bowl, break open the egg, and beat well adding a pinch of salt.
14

In a flat dish, spread the required bread crumbs.
15
