I sometimes feel that in our busy lifestyle, our traditional delicacies are slowly fading away. Only my elders know about it and my younger generation just do not care for it any more. May be because now my kids need quick and easy recipes that suit to their present lifestyle. In my this recipe, mutton is cooked in a blend of spices and coconut .. finally garnished with fresh coriander leaves, ideal to be served with simple tomato saar and rice or goes well with my neer dosa, set dosa or idiyappam. My hubby is a big mutton lover & this dish adds sparkle to his Sunday meal.
