Here’s how to make Mutton Kaleji:

Ingredients

½ kg mutton liver
4 to 5 medium onions, chopped
1 tbsp ginger garlic paste
2 tomatoes, chopped
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 tbsp red chilli powder
2 tbsp coriander powder
1 tsp turmeric powder
1 tsp garam masala powder
½ cup coriander leaves
¼ cup oil
Salt as per taste
1 tsp kasoori methi (dried fenugreek leaves)

Method

Cut the liver into small pieces and wash thoroughly.
Heat oil in a pan. Add cumin seeds. Then add onions and saute till they turn nice light brown in colour.
Add chopped tomatoes and salt, and cook till they become soft.
Add ginger garlic paste and fry well.
Add all the powder masalas and mix well. Add water so that the masala does not stick to the pan.
When oil starts leaving the sides, add the liver pieces. Mix well and let it cook for 15 to 20 minutes. Keep on stirring from time to time.
Add the kasoori methi.
To know if the liver is cooked, take out one piece and check if it tender and not juicy. Don’t overcook else it will become hard.
Garnish it with fresh coriander leaves.
Served with rice or roti.
