If you are a mutton fan, you must enjoy eating juicy mutton kebabs, soft mutton cutlets, flavourful mutton curries and so on. However, there is one recipe that will reign over your heart — it is Nalli Gosht Biryani. This lip-smacking biryani is made using lamb shanks (comes from the shin of the lamb), which is believed to be the king of all lamb cuts. Lamb shanks have lots of flavour, gelatine and bone marrow. Instead of ordering biryani from outside, try this recipe at home and enjoy the aromas and flavours of homemade Nalli Gosht Biryani.
Pro-Tip To Cook Mutton Perfectly
A lot of people avoid cooking mutton at home as it turns too chewy or hard. However, there could be certain mistakes that could be stopping you from cooking mutton perfectly at home. One important factor is to ensure you are following a slow cooking process. You need to be a patient cook to get this recipe right. Slow cooking helps to tenderise the meat, making it soft, juicy and easy to chew.
