Mangalore Mutton Curry image

I first tried this curry in a restaurant in Bangalore. I loved it so much that I asked all my friends if they knew anyone from Mangalore who could share the recipe with me. Finally, one of my friends came through. Below is an adaptation of her mother's recipe. If you like peppery curries and tamarind, you are sure going to love this style of curry. Serve with steamed plain rice or with chapati.

This is the worst curry I have ever tasted. It was so spicy that I could barely eat it, and the meat was dry and tough. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I'm not sure why this recipe has such high ratings. I followed the instructions exactly and my curry turned out terrible. It was bland and watery, and the meat was tough and chewy.

This recipe was a complete disaster. The curry was burnt and the meat was dry and tough. I will never make this recipe again.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my curry turned out really watery. It was still tasty, but it wasn't the thick, rich curry I was hoping for.

The curry was good, but the meat was a bit tough. I think I overcooked it.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I had to add a lot of extra spices to make it flavorful.

I'm not a big fan of mutton, but this curry was delicious. The meat was very tender and the curry was very flavorful.

This Mangalore Mutton Curry turned out fantastic! The flavors were rich and complex, and the meat was fall-off-the-bone tender. I served it with rice and a side of cucumber raita, and it was a hit with my family.
