Karahi Gosht

I need a recipe for karahi gosht…

I have half a pound of goat meat (don’t laugh at me :teary1: )

I don’t have a pressure cooker.

I don’t have the shan masala (if I did I wouldn’t be asking here :hinna: ) but I do have the basic masalas like namak lal mirch haldi garam masala paprika etc) and of course onions tomatoes etc

so pleeeeeease give me a recipe, with exact quantities of onions tomatoes spices etc…thanks!

Re: Karahi Gosht

Hmmm....Sara, if the karahi gosht usually turns out well when you make it with the Shan Masala.....then it would be more of a risk for you (I think) to make the dish without it. (And I could be wrong). Maybe consider cooking something else and save the karahi gosht for another time.

Re: Karahi Gosht

Don’t know how soon you need the recipe…but here are some links

Re: Karahi Gosht

RV I've never made it with shan masala before, I just don't feel like going all the way down to the desi grocery store to buy karahi masala

reason im asking is cz Im going away for a couple of weeks and i want to finish up the meat cz when I come back it might be bad by then.

Re: Karahi Gosht

Very simple recipe:

marinate your gosht in ginger-garlic, haldi, kutti mirchain and salt for half hour or so.

In a karahi, heat oil, bhuno 4 chopped tomatoes, whole red chillies until oil separates. Add the marinated meat, you may need to add some water, and cook on med-low until tender. If there's more water, increase the heat and bhuno until desired masala level is reached. Lower flame again, add 2-3 spoons kauri methi, bhuno, garnish with slit green chillies and dhaniya.

There one other home made masala you can add at kasuri methi stage:
dry roast 1 tsp zeera, 1 tsp whole coriander and 3 dry red mirch until you smell the zeera..grind coarsely in a coffee grinder or with a mortar pestle. It gives a zing and a very traditional aroma to the dish.

Re: Karahi Gosht

Ok...how long does it take for the meat to cook?

and what's kasuri methi? I have methi dana (they're yellow), and whats kutti mirchein?

Re: Karahi Gosht

kutti mirchain?? now we have those too?? :eek:

Re: Karahi Gosht

kasuri methi is dry methi...but if you don't have it don't substitute with methi daana.
Kutti mirchain are crushed red chillies as opposed to chilli powder. You can use either.

Gosht could take anywhere from 45mins to and hour..and as you're cooking with tomatoes here, it'll take longer.

:smack:

Re: Karahi Gosht

I'd imagine 30-45 minutes maximum for the whole thing. You can always check and what not to see if its cooked enough and tender.

Kasuri Methi is Fenugreek and Kutti Mirchain are like errr you know those chilli/pepper flakes (Kinda ground and what not).

Re: Karahi Gosht

I like women who can cook. Jus' say'n

Re: Karahi Gosht

:rotfl: I had the same reaction when i first heard about it :cb:

I think it’d take that time if a pressure cooker was used

:halo:

Re: Karahi Gosht

my goat meat takes forever and half a day to tenderize if cooked as is ..... so I've begun to use meat tenderizer (can find it at practically any grocery store) and that makes the cooking time approx 30-40 mins.

otherwise my recipe is almost exactly the same as niksiks. only diff is that I don't marinate ahead of time in ginger/garlic/haldi ... and I substitute red chilii powder and no kasuri methi (Ive been out for ages). Do use the whole masala ... the dry roasted/crushed cumin, whole coriander seeds .... that makes it awesome!
