I love the combo of mutton and potato a lot. So aloo gosht is always our favourite and a frequent mutton combo prepared at home as potatoes are always available at my home. Mixing the rice with the gravy and potato, having a bite. I always relish this taste. Mostly I cook mutton in a pressure cooker, this time I want to try it in a pan, cooking it in dum and the mutton cooked well and the gravy tasted so well. It was time-consuming but worthful.
