Kambing Perattal (Mutton Perattal)

Description

Mutton Perattal is a flavorful South Indian dry curry made with tender mutton pieces, aromatic spices, and a rich blend of traditional ingredients. This dish, also known as Mutton Ularthiyathu in some regions, is characterized by its robust, spicy, and deeply aromatic profile.The preparation involves slow-cooking mutton with a medley of spices such as fennel seeds, cinnamon, cloves, and curry leaves, often complemented by onions, tomatoes, ginger, and garlic. The key to its distinctive flavor is the roasting or "perattal" process, where the mutton is cooked until it absorbs the spices and the gravy thickens to a semi-dry consistency.
