Mutton Keema is one of those dishes that never fails to impress. Whether you serve it with hot parathas, steamed rice, or toast, it’s comfort food that always hits the spot.
The best part? It’s surprisingly easy to make when you start with good quality minced mutton.
Let’s break down how to make restaurant-style Mutton Keema at home — step by step.
For 4 servings:
Step 1: Heat and temper
Heat oil in a heavy pan. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter.
Step 2: Sauté the base
Add onions and sauté until golden brown. Mix in the ginger-garlic paste and cook until the raw smell disappears.
Step 3: Build the masala
Add tomato puree, turmeric, chili, and coriander powder. Cook the masala until the oil separates from the sides.
Step 4: Add the keema
Add the minced mutton and cook on medium flame. Stir well to coat the keema in the masala. Let it cook uncovered for 8–10 minutes.
Step 5: Add water and simmer
Pour ½ cup of water, cover, and let it simmer for another 10–12 minutes until tender.
Step 6: Finish strong
Add garam masala and green peas (if using). Stir, cook for 2–3 minutes, and garnish with fresh coriander leaves.

Keema made from shoulder or leg gives the best texture. It has the right balance of fat, which helps the keema stay tender during cooking.
Don’t overcook it. Add water in small amounts while simmering and keep the flame medium. Covering the pan also helps lock in moisture.
Green peas are the most common add-on, but you can also mix in diced capsicum or potatoes for a fuller, home-style version.
