    Rajasthani Safed Maas is a mutton based gravy that has a luscious texture and royal white colour derived from fresh cream, yogurt, khoya and dry fruits.

    About This Recipe

    Safed means “white” and maas means “mutton”. It is a luscious mutton gravy from the state of royals, Rajasthan and is quite popular in Rajasthani households from generations.

    It has a white hue to it due to the use of rich ingredients such as cashew and almond. It is further enriched with fresh cream, seeds, yogurt, khoya and dry fruits. This gravy is rich, slightly sweet and quite different from other mutton gravy recipes.

    It is relished with phulka, tawa paratha or lachha paratha. You can also serve it with steamed rice or jeera rice.

    Ingredients

    To make the paste – The base of the gravy is prepared with a freshly ground paste. The paste needs just 4 ingredients – almond, cashew nuts, poppy seeds and melon seeds.

    For the gravy – Other ingredients required to make safed maas are – Mutton, whole spices, salt, ghee, onion, ginger garlic paste, khoya, yogurt, milk, fresh cream and saffron.

    Use bone in mutton pieces, so that it soaks up the flavours nicely and makes it taste more delicious.

    Make the curry only in ghee for a rich taste. You can also use oil or butter, but ghee tastes the best.

    Whole spices such as bay leaf, cinnamon, clove, green cardamom and whole dry red chillies are added to the hot oil, so that it infuses the gravy with beautiful flavours.

    You can either make khoya at home, or use a store bought one.

    Addition of fresh cream makes it rich and creamy. You can avoid adding it if making it for your everyday meals.

    Saffron adds an orangish hue and makes the curry more flavourful.

    Serving Suggestions

    Safed Maas tastes the best with phulka, tawa paratha or lachha paratha. You can also serve it with steamed rice, jeera rice or any other lightly spiced pulao. Do not forget to serve some sliced onions on the side.

    Storage Suggestions

    Safed Maas will last for 1-2 days, due to the use of rich ingredients such as heavy cream and milk. Reheat in a pan or microwave, until hot before serving.
