trotter soup(mutton paya)

My husband is very fond of mutton legs( paya).He always used to tell me about this but i was not very sure about the taste.But when our daughter broke her arm in an accident his friends advised him to give this trotter soup which is  an effective remedy it helps the bones to heal faster. The next day he went and brought the soup but it was horrible in taste and smell was unbearable so we decided to prepare at home.We searched the net and at last we got this recipe and we tried the recipe but as always i modified little here  and there  and  it was really yum ...simply superb.....we all loved it.

Ingredients:-
Mutton legs-5-6 (5 inch pieces)
Onion-7-8(sliced )
Cinnamon- 3(1inch piece)
Clove-5-6

Ginger- 2( 1inch piece)
Garlic-2 pods
Tomato-2(chopped)

Method:-
  • Clean the pieces thoroughly .
  • Fry onion slices in ghee or in oil till golden brown.
  • Once you are done with the onion, pressure cook the leg pieces along with all the ingredients in 4 litres of water and don't forget to add the fried onions as it gives rice colour and  flavour to the soup.
  • Take 5-6 whistle.Switch off the gas.
  • Now strain the soup after removing all the pieces.
