If you’re looking for an easy, comforting goat soup recipe, this Indian-style mutton soup is a simple one to try. Made with bone-in goat meat, ginger, garlic, turmeric, and cumin, this soup is light, flavorful, and requires very little hands-on preparation.

Goat Soup/ Mutton Soup
This soup has a few basic ingredients but it’s full of flavor. This Instant Pot goat soup is especially convenient when you want a warm bowl of homemade soup without spending hours in the kitchen. You can connect the flavor of this soup with Indian as we use Turmeric powder and cumin powder. In India, we refer to goat meat as Mutton. Here it was new to me when we say goat and lamb separately. This recipe works great if you use goat or lamb.

- Set the cook time to 20 minutes. Once done, let the pressure release naturally.
- Open the lid and add chopped cilantro. Serve the soup warm with salt and pepper.

Stovetop Method
- Heat butter or oil in the pressure cooker on stovetop.
