Mutton curry like Amma’s Durban Chicken Curry was characterized by its red colour and fiery taste. As kids we grew accustomed to the pungent taste by eating a little gravy mixed with potato,rice and small pieces of meat. Like most prime meats, Mutton Curry was reserved for Sunday lunch! If we were expecting visitors on that day Amma would bring out her best amber serving dish and no mutton curry was complete without a topping of fresh coriander from the garden. Amma’s mutton curry often contained a combination of potatoes and peas, guthera beans or broad beans. On occasion she added dumplings or made mutton and cabbage curry.
