About Dakshini Mutton Curry

It was a day my son came after long time, he brought mutton. I was mentally prepared to cook Dakshin Bharatiya mutton curry that is south Indian mutton curry.

I saw that all ingredients in my fridge so why need to worry. Then I started cooking, after cooking served with rice and it was very delicious.
