I had tasted Mutton Kola Urundai in a famous restaurant in Dindigul called Venu Biryani. It was crispy outside, soft was juicy inside. I liked it so much and wanted to try at home. And yeah I was able to replicate at least to 60%. You need mutton keema for this recipe. If you don’t have mutton keema, you can use boneless mutton pieces as we are going to grind it. So that wouldn’t be a problem. We have to grind a special masala for Kola Urundai which includes sombu(fennel seeds), kasa kasa (poppy seeds), cinnamon, cloves, cashews, green chillies, ginger, garlic, Onion and Coriander leaves. We need Roasted gram dal(pottu kadalai) powder to bind ground masala and mutton keema together. In some parts of Tamil nadu, like Madurai, they add eggs to bind the masala and keema together and form a shape. mutton keema balls in a plate
