Rajasthani Mutton Banjara

Simple and delicious, Mutton Banjara is very famous in Rajasthani households.

The easiest Mutton Curry made with simple ingredients along with a simple recipe. No marination, no slow cooking, this recipe is apt for all who are in a rush to complete their dinner preparations. As the name says, Mutton Banjara, where Banjara means Gypsies. Hence the dish that is made in jiffy with the simplest ingredients in Mutton Banjara.

Serve Rajasthani Mutton Banjara along with Roomali Roti, Phulkas or Steamed rice for a weekend dinner.


Though the recipe is simple and easy to make but it is not at all advisable to those who are in a process of weight loss or are calorie watchers. The dish is a bit spicy and also requires a generous amount of oil.ghee for cooking. But still you can any day adjust the quantity of oil used but again that won’t give the ‘rogan’ (color and surface oil) as required. I usually make this dish on weekends and serve it with plain steamed rice and some raita to go along. But personally i would suggest to have this Rajasthani Bnajara Mutton with Roomali Roti.

I tried this recipe over the weekend, and it was amazing! Just the way you described it – simple, quick and delicious. I like my curries spicy (being a Rajasthani, living in Pennsylvania), and it turned out exactly that way, of course, having increased all the spice quantities. Thanks very much for a great recipe!

How many times do we have to whistle n pressure cooker

Hi, it depends on the mutton you are using, i would advise you to wait for 3 whistles first, open and check. If you still find it stiff and hard then i’m sure you yourself will get an idea as in how many whistles it may need to cook properly. Sometimes you have to decide it all by your own. Hope my reply was useful to you. Thanks for stopping by!
