Mutton Podimas the Chettinad Type (minced lamb curry)

I doubt whether any other community is


specialized in making this podimas like chettiars.
Unlike all the other non vegetarian dishes made
in chettinad this dish is totally non spicy. Children
just love this. As people became calorie
conscious, they started realizing the high
cholesterol content in this dish and as a result
now a days this podimas has almost vanished
from chettinad homes. But those who have
tasted the dish will really crave for it. In our home
also we very rarely have mutton. I really wanted
to make the world know about this mouth
watering chettinad special. So after a very long
time I prepared this at home. All at home are
making fun of me telling that just because of
cookery blogs they get a chance to taste these
dishes. This will taste excellent with Rasam
Ingredients
Minced mutton-1/4 kg
Minced onion-1/2 cup
Green chillies-2
Ginger garlic paste-1 teaspoon
Egg-1
Grated coconut-2 table spoon
Bengal gram (Kadalai paruppu) boiled-2 table spoons
Method
Pressure cooks the minced mutton along with 1
teaspoon red chili powder, 1 teaspoon coriander
powder, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1
teaspoon salt and ginger garlic paste. Add 1 ½
cups of water also. Cook for 12 minutes in
medium flame. Once the pressure is released
open the cooker. Using a strainer drain the
excess water out of the mutton. Place a kadai in
the stove. Pour 1 tablespoon oil. Put 2 small
pieces of cinnamon, little curry leaf and the
splinted green chilly. Sauté for a minute. Now
add the minced onion. Sauté till the onions turn
transparent. Now add 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
and the salt needed. Remember that you added
salt while cooking meat also. Add little strained
water. Cook till the water content is gone. Now
break the egg and add to the minced meat and
stir with a spatula fast such that the egg gets
scrambled nicely. Now add the boiled kadailai
paruppu and grated coconut. Sauté for two more
minutes. Switch off the stove. If desired the dish can be garnished with coriander leaves while serving
