Kairi ka dopyaza| Kairi gosht |Green mango and mutton curry

Kairi ka dopyaza/Kairi gosht /Green mango and mutton curry  is a traditional recipe from the states of Andhra and Telengana.As the name suggests dopyaza means loaded with onions.If you love the tang in your curries or you are a green mango lover then this curry is for you .Mutton is cooked with onions,spices and green mango(kairi) .Apart from the onions there are no supporting actors for this curry like coconut or cashew nut paste that give thickness to curries.So you cant expect thick makhni or a coconut  style gravy.You can always adjust the quantity of green mango based on how tangy you want this curry to be.It can be served with plain rice or any flat bread but I would highly recommend it with the former .Kairi dopyaza is literally "dump everything " style curry.The only part that is laborious is chopping the onion but a food processor makes the work easier.Try to cut onion as thinly as possible to reduce the cooking time. If you are looking for a vegetarian option with green mango then this Kari dal would perfectly fit in the menu.
