About

This dish is the ultimate in humble ingredients, but so full of flavour, simplicity and mutton that it positively dazzles after a long, slow simmer. It is perfect to pop in a low oven during a busy evening service. Tables of eager kitchen and waiting staff are seen demolishing pots of this in the tired, wee hours of street eateries across India.
