Mangsher Chop / Mutton Croquettes

Star Rating WIDGET PACK

Yesterday I experienced the worst ... my camera's memory card got corrupted and I lost more than half pictures of this recipe. We tried very hard to recover those photos but no luck!! It was nobody's fault, it's just that the tiny little piece of 'card' betrayed me 😔😔😔 very harshly .. and I felt tremendously helpless towards 'technology'. Now you guys know why there is no step by step pictures in this recipe. Anyway, among all of this depression, the brightest side is the dish 'mangsher chop'. In Bengal, it is one of the popular and lip smacking snack which you can get in many fast food centers. Spicy, crumbly mutton filling inside and crispy coating outside. Here in Austin, it was pouring heavily from last 2 - 3 days and I couldn't find any better day than this to make those croquettes. You can pair them with a cup of tea or a can of beer, every-time they will taste better and better.

Keep it in the fridge for overnight or at least for 4 hours.

If you find some juice after opening the lid, bring the heat to high and stir the mutton until it absorbes all the juices.

While cooking the mutton, it must have released some oil. Do not discard it.
