                                             Mutton Vindaloo...!!!!

Vindaloo is an Indian Curry dish popular in the region of Goa. It is the Cuisine of the Mumbai-based East-Indians.But  globally it is famous as an Anglo-Indian preparation.

The name Vindaloo is derived from the Portuguese dish "Carne de Vinha d' Alhos", which is a dish of meat, usually pork, with red wine and garlic The Portuguese dish was modified by the substitution of vinegar (usually palm vinegar) for the red wine and the addition of red Kashmiri chillies with additional spices to evolve into Vindaloo.Alternative terms are vindalho or vindallo,[Source: Wikipedia].

In my family,I prepare mutton only for my hubby and rarely my daughter eats that. And this time I thought to prepare this when I saw a tempting pork vindaloo preparation in one of my favorite blogs.With very little variation using mutton I prepared this and nevertheless to tell that it turned out really good and satisfied my hubby.

Here is the recipe:




Ingredients:

• Mutton: 1kg
• Potato:2 medium(large diced,you can avoid the potato also)
• Dried Kashmiri red chilli:10-12( though kashmiri chillies are not hot usually and mainly used for color but still you can reduce the amount)
• Mustard Seeds:1 1/2 Tbsp
• Cumin Seeds:1 tsp
• Black Pepper:1 table spoon
• Vinegar:1 cup
• Onions: 2 large(finely chopped)
• Garlic Cloves:8 Cloves (chopped fine)
