 Instructions

Preparation

1. Marinate the Meat:
– In a large bowl, mix yogurt with 2-3 tablespoons of Country Plus Foods Achar Gosht Masala.
– Add the meat pieces to the bowl, ensuring they are well-coated with the marinade.
– Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for better flavor absorption.

2. Prepare the Spice Mix:
– Dry roast cumin seeds, mustard seeds, fenugreek seeds, fennel seeds, and nigella seeds in a pan until fragrant.
– Let them cool and then grind them into a coarse powder. This will be your achar (pickle) spice mix.

Cooking

1. Frying Onions:
– Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat.
– Add the finely sliced onions and fry until they are golden brown and crispy.
– Remove the onions from the oil and set aside on paper towels to drain excess oil.

2. Cooking the Meat:
– In the same oil, add ginger and garlic paste. Sauté for a minute until fragrant.
– Add the marinated meat to the pot and cook on high heat for 5-7 minutes until the meat changes color and the yogurt starts to separate.
– Reduce the heat to medium, cover the pot, and let the meat cook in its own juices for about 30 minutes or until tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

3. Adding Tomatoes and Spices:
– Once the meat is tender, add chopped tomatoes, green chilies, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Stir well.
– Add the roasted achar spice mix to the pot and mix thoroughly.
– Cover and cook for another 10-15 minutes until the tomatoes are soft and the oil starts to separate from the gravy.

4. Final Touches:
– Crush the fried onions and add them to the pot. Stir well to combine.
– Adjust the seasoning if necessary.
– Simmer for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Serving

1. Garnishing:
– Transfer the Achar Gosht to a serving dish.
– Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and lemon slices.

2. Accompaniments:
