MUTTON SOUP

Mutton soup is a delicious and healthy soup which gets done in a jiffy. It is cooked without oil and is mildly seasoned with pepper. This soup can also be prepared with mutton bones. We usually serve Mutton soup as a clear soup after passing it through a strainer, but you can also have it as it is. If you are serving as a clear soup, then use large chunks of mutton as it will be easy to separate the mutton which can be used to make other mutton based gravies. To serve as it is, use very small pieces of mutton and cook for 2 more whistles.

Shorba and Mutton paaya are other mutton based soup like curries which are usually had with rice and cooked with the addition of coconut, and other masalas. The recipe of shorba will follow soon.
