Mutton Green Masala

Mutton Green Masala


This is one of the oldest & most common recipes of Mangalorean cuisine. 

This quick & easy curry is a perfect blend of aromatic spices and has a freshness and flavours of herbs like coriander & mint leaves. 

This flavourful green curry goes extremely well with sanna, neeru dosa/ panpole, appams and even with roti, chapathi or boiled rice. My family loves it with soft silky neeru dosas/panpole. 

The soup of mutton makes this curry so glossy ,  flavourful and aromatic. 

This same masala can be used for chicken too. 

Please note:

Use spices as per your preference. 

Cooking time of mutton depends on the quality of meat. Tender meat cooks faster.
