  1. Its truly amazing that a rich mutton curry can be prepared with such minimal ingredients. I am sure the taste will be excellent so I will be adding this on my to do list.

  2. This is very new to me and I have never prepared any non veg recipe without ginger-garlic paste. Looks tempting…coriander leaves would have imparted nice flavour and taste to meat in this recipe…
