👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Pat the mutton pieces dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
💡 전문가 팁: Drying the meat helps it to brown better.
2
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the mutton pieces on all sides until golden brown. Do this in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pot. Remove the browned mutton and set aside.
3
Add the chopped onions to the pot and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
4
Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until it darkens slightly. This helps to develop its flavor.
5
Add the chopped fresh tomatoes, red and green bell peppers, bay leaves, and dried thyme. Stir well to combine.
6
Return the browned mutton to the pot. Pour in the water or broth and add the bouillon cube, if using. Bring the mixture to a boil.
💡 전문가 팁: Ensure the liquid covers the meat. Add more if needed.
7
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for at least 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the mutton is very tender.
💡 전문가 팁: Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
8
Stir in the cayenne pepper and adjust salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for another 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
9
Remove the bay leaves before serving. Serve hot with your favorite accompaniment like rice, couscous, or fufu.

Add other root vegetables like sweet potatoes or carrots during the last hour of simmering.
For a thicker sauce, you can mash some of the cooked tomatoes against the side of the pot or create a slurry with a tablespoon of flour and a little water, then stir it into the sauce.
