Relatives raise their own sheep and send fresh mutton every winter. This is a treasure and an absolute green food. Green mutton must be made in a green way, so I try to add as little seasoning, such as star anise, aniseed, cinnamon, fragrant leaves... I just want to preserve the delicacy of the mutton to the greatest extent possible.
The best season to eat mutton is the twelfth month of winter. Mutton is sweet but not greasy, warm but not dry in nature. It has the effects of tonifying the kidney and strengthening the yang, warming the middle and dispelling cold, warming qi and blood, and stimulating the appetite and strengthening the spleen. Therefore, eating mutton in winter can not only resist the cold, but also nourish the body. It is really a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.

Heat the pan, add a little salad oil to heat, add in the tomato and onion puree and stir-fry until done.
4
Cut the fresh mutton into small pieces, wash it, and soak in clear water for a period of time to soak out blood. (I spent about 3 hours in the soak)
5
Wash the soaked mutton, place it in a pressure cooker, and add clear water. The ratio of water to meat is 3:1. Bring to a boil over high heat, remove the foam, cover, and hold the air pressure for 20 minutes. Turn off the heat and place it in a cool place. The lower the temperature, the better, let the layer of oil floating on it condense. Remove the condensed white oil and the remaining soup will be light and non-greasy.

Heat the wok, add a little oil, add the spring onion and ginger slices to stir fry until fragrant. Remove the mutton, pour it into a frying pan, stir fry, add a little cooking wine, and stir fry until the mutton changes color.

1. If mutton is cooked in a casserole throughout the entire process, the ratio of water to meat should be 4:1, and simmer for 1.5 hours. 2. When cooking mutton, you can add appropriate amount of cooking wine and ginger, which not only removes the mutton smell, but also maintains the original flavor of the mutton. 3.
