This is a tasty looking Indian mutton recipe with peas.
It was originally submitted to Cookingnook.com by Sheila Sharma from Kolkata, West Bengal, India. She says: “This is a very tasty mutton recipe. It can be made with chicken too.”
Mutton is simply older lamb, so feel free to use lamb instead. Or chicken as Sheila indicates.
I notice that Sheila pre-boils the mutton and then adds it in at the end. So while the mutton is boiling you prepare the tasty sauce.
What’s in the Sauce
The sauce has onions, tomatoes, ginger garlic paste, turmeric and garam masala.
If you aren’t familiar with garam masala it is a mix of Indian spices that come in a package already put together. It is really delicious and good to have on hand.
So what if you don’t have ginger garlic paste? Use half ginger and half garlic paste, or just use chopped garlic and ginger.
If you cook Indian food once in a while these ingredients are probably ones that you already have on hand. If not, your local Indian grocery store will have them.
It’s not a difficult recipe at all, even if you haven’t made Indian food in the past.

Tomato Dhosai by shri (NSW) take one cup of (idly)rice…soak the rice 2 hours….with 1/4 cup of urid dall….2 hours,after…drain water fully ,and grind it…(when you are grinding do not add more for grinding…..add a required water it will become like a paste..or cream.) You pour that in one vessel.now,in the mixing jar, you put 2 big tomatoes, or 3 small tomatoes, one big garlic (it means,10 slices of garlic in that), ginger(the measure of your small finger), one cinnamon, 3 cloves, 10 red chilies, required of salt,and grind it all…add this one to rice-urid flavour….stir both of them well…if you want to prepare dhosai now…in this flavour more sliced onion add for great taste. Add coriander,curry leaves more….put a non stick pan on the stove, pour the flavour….add oil,or ghee ….boil.it both of sides become golden color…..
