Pressure Cook to Tenderness
Finish and Garnish
Replace mutton with bone-in chicken pieces. Reduce the pressure cooking time to about 10-12 minutes (2-3 whistles).
Add 2 medium potatoes, peeled and quartered, along with the hot water before pressure cooking for a more wholesome meal.
If you don't have a pressure cooker, you can make this in a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven. After sautéing the mutton, add hot water, cover, and simmer on low heat for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the mutton is tender.
For a slightly different flavor profile, add 1 teaspoon of fennel powder (saunf) along with the other powdered spices.

Yes, absolutely. You can cook it in a heavy-bottomed pot or a Dutch oven. Follow all steps until adding water, then cover and simmer on low heat for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the mutton is fall-off-the-bone tender. You may need to add more hot water if the gravy becomes too thick.
The deep, rich color of the gravy comes almost entirely from the browning of the onions. You likely need to fry the onions for a longer time, until they are a uniform deep golden brown, just short of burning. This step requires patience but is key to the authentic taste and color.
Yes, you can use boneless mutton. However, bone-in mutton adds significantly more flavor and body to the gravy. If using boneless, you may need to reduce the cooking time slightly.
Store leftover Mutton Teevan in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. The flavors actually improve overnight. You can also freeze it for up to 2 months.
