Chettinad Mutton Kurma

Chettinad cuisine is famous for their use of a variety of spices, the dishes are hot and pungent with fresh ground masalas, this chettinad style mutton kurma is also prepared with a variety of spices, this kurma goes awesome as side dish with rice also with idlies, dosais, rotis...We had this fingerlicking mutton kurma simply with fried papads for our weekend lunch and just enjoyed it.
