Pressure cooked Mutton rezala in 20 minutes

Last updated: October 19th, 2022

Today is my husband’s birthday and I had to cook 5 types of vegetable fries, biuli dal, Shorshe Ilish  (Hilsa in mustard seed paste) and Mutton rezala for lunch. And I had to be super fast as well since I had to look after my daughter, have some other tasks too. So I decided to cook the Mutton rezala in a pressure cooker in lesser time. And yes, the dish came out too well and in just 20 minutes. That’s the beauty of a pressure cooker!! Earlier I shared the chicken rezala recipe. Hope you tried that too! I will now share the recipe for mutton rezala. Let’s have a look.

Time required to cook Pressure cooked Mutton rezala: 20 minutes

Ingredients for  Pressure cooked Mutton rezala cooked for 3 people:

  • 500gm mutton
  • 1/2 cup curd
  • Paste of 1/4 cup poppy seeds or posto
  • Paste of 1/4 cup cashew nuts
  • Dry roasted and grinded with mortar pestle – 2 cinnamon sticks, 3 green cardamom, 1 black cardamom, 1 red chilly dry, 1 tsp white pepper, 1 whole mace, 5 cloves
  • Mustard oil/ refined oil or ghee
  • 1 red dry chilly
  • Salt
  • A paste of 2 big onions, 7 garlic cloves, 1 inch ginger

Pressure cooked Mutton rezala recipe:

  • Marinate Mutton with salt, onion – ginger – garlic paste, curd for about 1.5 hours (you can Marinate longer in a refrigerator if you have time in hand)
  • After marination completes, in a pressure cooker heat mustard oil. Drop in a red dry chilly and then drop the grinded spices as mentioned above. Let the aroma come out
  • Now, add the Mutton along with marinades and stir cook for 10 minutes
  • Add poppy seed and cashew nut paste and stir well. Cook till water is almost dried up. It takes 7 – 10 minutes more till oil starts to separate
  • Add about 2 cups of water and cook for 8 – 10 whistles. Switch off the gas and let it rest for some time. Now, if you want a gravy of thicker consistency, you can remove the lid of the pressure cooker and simmer for few more minutes, till the right consistency is achieved!
