Title: Midnight Snack / lost count
Post by: chewytikka on October 06, 2014, 12:58 AM

Mutton Saag Aloo Balti Bhuna
Now that is a mouthful and so was the Curry.

A lot of prep went into each element of this one and a recipe would read like
war and peace, or one of Todiwala

That would probably just about tick all my ultimate curry boxes. Looks fantastic.  :)

Edit: Mutton, saag, aloo and balti, if you could just squeeze an egg in there I would quite happily retire to a desert island.

That lamb looks delicious, Chewy. I'm enjoying eating lamb at the moment but relatively new to cooking it. My local butcher has been doing me chunks of chump, which I've been experimenting with. Overcooked it first time and, although it held it's shape in the dish, it dissolved to mush in the mouth - quite literally melt in the mouth. I prefer a little more texture.

What's your favoured cut of lamb and method of cooking.

The mutton in Chewy's dish was precooked on the bone shoulder. A whole shoulder cut by the indian butchers and cooked using Chewy's pressure cooker method, http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php/topic,12520.0.html (http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php/topic,12520.0.html)

25 mins after pressure is reached then I just left it till cool then took the meat of the bone. I've done this a few times and its great for curries, in fact its probably my favourite curry meat (closely followed by skinned and boned chicken leg). I'm going to have to get some beef and try it as I have a fancy for a beef madras.

Cheers, Gav. But does a 'whole shoulder cut by the Indian butchers' mean that the shoulder was cut off the lamb as a whole or it was a shoulder, then cut up?

I just ask for a shoulder of sheep and he picks up a big lump of meat and cuts it up on his band saw and trims the big lumps of fat of. I'll pay more attention next time I'm buying.
