Mangalore Mutton Curry image

I first tried this curry in a restaurant in Bangalore. I loved it so much that I asked all my friends if they knew anyone from Mangalore who could share the recipe with me. Finally, one of my friends came through. Below is an adaptation of her mother's recipe. If you like peppery curries and tamarind, you are sure going to love this style of curry. Serve with steamed plain rice or with chapati.

This curry was okay, but I've had better. The flavors were a bit too mild for my taste, and the meat was a bit tough. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

I found this Mangalore Mutton Curry to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices, and it was much better. I think this recipe could use a bit more seasoning.

This curry was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The flavors were great, and the meat was cooked perfectly. I would recommend using less chili pepper next time.
