i-recipes: Namkeen Gosht/ Salted Meat

Self cooking photograph

Learned this simple & easy recipe from my mother in law - their family speciality
and a MUST course on Eid ul Adha. It should be made with fresh meat.

beef or mutton

1kg - with fat & bone

ginger

1 tbsp - thinly sliced

salt

to taste

black pepper pwdr

1/2 tsp

oil

1tsp

water

1/2 cup

lemon

1tbsp

Method:

Heat oil in a pot on a medium heat.

Add all the ingredients along with meat and add water; stir well on high heat.

Reduce the heat to low; cover and cook for 30 minutes or until meat is tender.

Stir with wooden spoon occasionally.

Add 1 tbsp water more if needed.

Note: Meat cooks in its own fat and it should be dry once cooked.

Add lemon and serve hot without any bread.

(we enjoy this way, alternately you can choose to serve bread on the side)

Serves 4 to 6.
