Mutton Stew is a much loved coconut based curry that is enjoyed along the coast of Karnataka & Kerala. This is an improvised version of Catholic style stew prepared in an electric pressure pot
Switch on the Nutripot and select the 'SAUTE' mode. The display screen shows 'ON' when it is ready. Add the ghee and fry the onions till golden brown and add the garlic and green chillies and fry for half a minute.
Add the ground stew powder and the meat. Add 1-1/2 cups of water and salt to taste. Cover the lid and cancel the 'SAUTE' mode.
Turn on the 'MEAT/STEW' mode and set the timer to 20 minutes. Put the vent in sealing mode and cook till the timer goes off
Then initiate quick release by turning the whistle to venting mode. Once the steam has been released, open the lid and add the vegetables.
Put the lid back on and turn the vent to sealing mode again and turn on the 'BEAN/LENTILl' mode and cook for 5 minutes. Once the timer goes off, initiate quick release by turning the whistle to venting mode. Once the steam has been released, open the lid and change the mode to 'SAUTE' mode and add the coconut milk.
Give the stew one boil (without closing the lid). Check taste and adjust salt if required. Turn off the switch after 2 minutes.
