This is a vegan version of South Indian mutton pepper fry, which is usually made with chicken or meat/mutton. The recipe varies based on the region(andhra, Kerala, Tamil Nadu) with one thing in common, generous amount of black pepper!

And as with many meat based curries, it?s all in the sauce. This sauce has a caramelized onion that is usually built up with spices and pepper. The meats usually cook in the sauce but I use tofu which gets crisped up separately. This version is adapted from Chef Ranveer Brar?s mutton pepper fry(he mentions that he slightly added his north Indian touch, hence the black cardamom).
Explore regional Indian cuisine with me and do try this pepper fry! It is incredibly delicious, and of course a bit hot with all of that black pepper. You can pair the sauce with chickpeas or beans, or roasted veggies or vegan chicken for variation and to make tofu-free.

Serve it with some thick flatbread, like naan or pita bread, or over rice, which will dampen...
