Lajawab Mutton
For the non-vegetarian lovers here is a super-tasty lamb dish. Ensure that the dry masala's used are freshly ground for that aromatic succulent taste of meat. The meat is marinated for a few hours to tenderise it and for the flavours to penetrate in the meat. I've used cashewnuts to thicken the gravy as nuts give a great texture to the gravy. Now coming to the recipe...
