Description:

Mutton Sultani Karahi is a luxurious and rich variant of the traditional Karahi, known for its indulgent flavors and creamy, aromatic gravy. This dish features tender mutton (usually goat or lamb) cooked in a rich, spiced gravy made with ingredients like yogurt, cream, and ground nuts, which lend a smooth and rich texture to the sauce.

The mutton is marinated in yogurt, ginger, garlic, and spices before being cooked in a karahi (a traditional wok-like vessel). Whole spices like cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, and cumin are used to enhance the flavor, while a combination of onions, tomatoes, and green chilies are added for depth. What sets Sultani Karahi apart is the addition of ground almonds or cashews, which help thicken the gravy and add a nutty richness. Sometimes, saffron or kewra water is added to infuse the dish with a fragrant aroma, making it more royal and aromatic.

The dish is typically garnished with fresh coriander, fried onions, and ginger juliennes. Mutton Sultani Karahi is often served with naan, paratha, or steamed rice, making it a perfect choice for special occasions, celebrations, or a festive meal. Its rich, creamy texture and complex flavors make it a standout dish in South Asian cuisine.
