Mutton Yakhni
Directions
- 1Start by adding two pounds of lamb to a pot. I'm using bone in for extra flavor.
- 2Add a couple of bay leaves, cardamom pods, cloves, a cinnamon stick, black cardamom, some garlic, a tablespoon of ginger paste, and a heaping spoon of dried mint.
- 3Add four cups of water and let it boil for an hour.
- 4To make the onion jam, thinly slice a couple of onions and saute them in a touch of ghee till they get nice and toasty brown.
- 5Then blend them into a fine paste.
- 6Wash two cups of basmati rice and boil it in heavily salted water for 12 to 15 minutes or till the rice grains look nice and fluffy.
- 7Once the meat is soft, strain it and set it aside.
- 8Add four cups of yogurt to the same pot with an egg and whisk it till it boils. Add the lamb back to the pot with the stock and a gigantic spoon of the onion jam.
- 9Give the pot a good pinch of salt, another tablespoon of dried mint, and let it simmer till it thickens.
- 10Once the sauce has thickened and has a body coating the lamb pieces, pour the lamb pieces in a bowl with a few scoops of the sauce.
- 11Add a sprinkle of dried mint on top, just to amp up the minty aroma.
- 12Serve it next to a mountain of rice with each scoop of the sauce smothering the rice grains. Let each bite warm your soul and enjoy.
