Mutton Curry Odia Style
Background
Mutton is a delicacy across India and is used on special occasions. This recipe is from Odisha, an eastern state in India where my mother-in-law grew up as a child. It is simple to cook, very tasty and goes well with rice or roti alike.
Ingredients
- 500 gms Mutton
- For Marinade:
- ½ Cup yogurt

Instructions
