Mutton Kuruma, Easy Mutton Kurma Recipe with Coconut

November 5, 2016 by Suguna Vinodh 27 Comments

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

This is a very easy mutton kurma that can be put together in minutes. The addition of coconut makes the kurma very rich. I like to use both green chillies and red chilli powder for this recipe. It adds a nice flavour. Here is how to do mutton kurma Tamilnadu style.

Take all the ingredients listed under “for the pressure cooker” in the ingredients list and add it to the cooker. Cover the pan and cook on medium flame for 20 minutes (about 15 whistles). Remove from heat and wait for the pressure to release.

In the mean time, grind coconut, cashews and tamarind with a cup of water. Soak the tamarind for 20 minutes before grinding. Grind to a smooth paste. Set aside.

Once the pressure releases, open the pan and put it on simmer. Add in the paste and simmer for 10 minutes.

        Hello, Ms Suguna I have the same query. No oil to be added in pressure cooker to saute and cook mutton?
        No other masala too, not even saunf?
        Amazing, trying it right now.

    This recipe didn’t turn out so well for me, but I cannot fault the recipe for that exactly. The coconut I bought turned out to be rancid so I used coconut milk instead (about 200 ml of store-bought canned coconut milk). I reduced the water in the final step to half a cup (that is 125 ml). The curry is now too thin and doesn’t taste of much.

    Is coconut milk not a substitute for coconut in this instance?

      If using coconut milk, add at last and do not simmer for long after adding coconut milk.

      Hi Vijay, The recipe is for 250 grams mutton. You can just increase the ingredients 4 times. But make sure to use atleast a 5 litre cooker.
