Mutton Pulao Recipe is an amazing pulao recipe made with mutton and rice. This is one of my favourite rice recipes. This is a variation to the mutton tahari recipe which I posted earlier. The mutton pulao is almost the same as the pulao recipes where aromatic spices are used to make rice but, meat is added to the rice to lift up the flavors of the pulav and make it as a very special dish.

I have also shared another pulao variations that is chicken pulao and many other pulao recipes.

Check below for more mutton/meat recipes:

In my mutton tahari recipe I have used onions and tomatoes but, in this pulao recipe I have not made any use of tomatoes but I have used only yogurt.

The taste of the recipe is so delicious and yummy that one would make this pulao very often. I have used very fresh and red meat to make mutton pulao as choosing the right meat makes a lot of difference to the pulao.

Spices too play a key role as the whole aroma is based on the spices we use. The spices have to be freshly bought and they should be very aromatic as that gives wonderful fragrance to the whole mutton pulav.

The recipe is easy and simple but does take time as meat is being used and meat takes certain amount of time to get tenderized. This is not yakhni pulao but it is a variant of it.

This pulao is very common in Hyderabadi recipes and also in different regions of India and Pakistan.

I try to make pulao recipes of mutton in various ways and this recipe is one among them. Whenever I get bored of making non veg biryani recipes, I try to make pulao recipes which bring a different taste and improves our innovation in cooking.

This is a do try dish and I am sure my blog readers are going to like this pulao...

Let us take a look at making this delicious recipe and do stay tuned and watch this space for more of the mutton recipes.
