A yummilicious lip smacking main course dish,which has still not received its deserved appreciation in food world.
I being a North Indian ,was always stuck with my creamy tomato rich north Indian curries......TILL I CAME ACROSS THIS RECIPE.
My first cousin was coming to meet me from Delhi.I wanted to make something different yet tasty for him as he was fed up of most of north Indian cuisine(overdose of it caused this).At that time accidentally on google ,I came across this recipe.My mom in law being from Hyderabad guided me with the coconut paste part.And voila I got something as good as this to put on my blog.
My brother loved it so much that he finished most of the dish by himself.:)))
