Friends, I don't know how I missed posting this very special recipe of mine and was lying uncared in the drafts folder. I had made this dish during one fine day of Eid-ul-Adha, when a sudden guest has appeared at  home along with Mutton Biryani, Chapli Kababs, Salad and Raita. Among all the dishes, this was the easiest one to prepare and was done first. So while the biryani was on simmer I got ample time to photograph it and I'm presenting it here for you all. On a side note, we have stopped consuming mutton for the past one year, so all my mutton recipes that has come up or will come in future are the dishes already prepared and savoured during Eid days, with few exceptions here and there.... :)
