    WHAT IS MUTTON PULAO?

    Instant Pot Pakistani Mutton Pulao (Goat Pulao) is filled with the flavors of whole spices cooked within the meat; then have stock cooked within the rice. It's flavorful and aromatic. Its stock is cooked separately then mixed in with the rice. It's simply delicious. It's one of those classic Pakistani mutton recipes like Mutton Karahi, Mutton Charsi Karahi, and Mutton Paya Curry.

    WHAT KIND OF MEAT SHOULD BE USED?

    I used mutton (goat meat) to make this recipe but you can use any meat you want. I have made it with chicken and beef in the past, it tastes great. You can add any type of meat you want, you can even use lamb in this. However, the pressure timings varies on which type of meat you will be using.

    INGREDIENTS

    • Muslin Cloths - 2 Muslin cloth are used in this recipe.
    • Rice- The link for the rice can be found here.
    • Onion- Make sure onion get brown.
    • Meat - Goat, mutton

    FAQS

    Why are Muslin bags necessary?

    Need to boil with whole spices, yet not needing to mix it in the stock. Same thing for garlic and ginger.

    Why rice became mushy/soggy?

    The rice-to-water is not accurate. It's extremely important to measure the pulao accurately.

    HOW TO COOK MUTTON PULAO?

    In an Instant pot, add 2 Muslin cloth filled with ingredients, water, meat, and pressure.
    It should look like this after pressure. It became meat stock.
    discard the muslin bags with the contents inside and set aside the instant pot with the meat stock.
    On a pot, on a stove, add oil, and let it heat up.
    Add whole spices.
    Now add onion sauté them until they are brown.
    Add Homemade Ginger Garlic Paste
    Next add only the meat from the Instant Pot.
    Add Homemade Dahi (Indian yogurt).
    Now add Homemade Garam Masala Powder.
    Add green pepper and mix well.
    Now add the stock from the Instant Pot.
    Add rice and mix let it cook.
    Cover and let it cook.
    When it looks like this then...
    Wrap the lid with foil. Place tawa on top of the stove, start the dumming process.
    It's done ready to eat.
    3 plates of pulao with royal rice packet.
    Enjoy!

    WHAT TO SERVE IT WITH?

    To be honest, it can stand alone by itself, yes! It's that delicious. However, you can devour the mutton pulao with garlic chutney and raita.

    WHAT TO PAIR THIS WITH?

    It can easily be paired with Butter Chicken, Beef Nihari, and Mutton Charsi Karahi. Don't forget the dessert Zarda, Kheer, and/or Meethi Seviyan.
