| | How to make Kashmiri Mutanjan: |
| • | Take a medium sized bowl and add onions, cinnamon, cloves, 8 peppercorns, 4 cardamoms, and coriander in it. Now, take a clean cotton cloth and tie all the above ingredients to make a potli. Keep it aside.
|
| • | Now, heat a pan and put the potli prepared along with lamb, salt and enough water to cover it. Cook it till the water is reduced to half and let it cool a bit.
|
| • | Remove the potli and squeeze out the flavor in the pan itself.
|
| • | Add sugar and lemon juice in the same pan and cook it till it gets syrupy and glazy. Keep it aside.
|
| • | Take another deep pan and boil rice in water with the other left spices and some salt. Cook till the rice is half done and then drain out the water.
|
| • | Take a casserole and grease it. Now, arrange a layer of rice, then the lamb and again the layer of remaining rice.
|
| • | Pour saffron milk over top, sprinkle crushed almonds over it, cover it tightly and let it bake at 350 F for 30 to 35 minutes.
|
| • | Serve hot. |
