Sharu's Fundas: Lamb Curry

Hello everyone !! After a long time, sharing a non-veg recipe on my blog !! I am not a fan of lamb/mutton curry. I don't like it that much. I generally eat chicken curry. But my husband loves lamb/mutton more than chicken curry. So just for him I made this delicious spicy lamb curry. He guided me a lot in making it as I have never prepared it. & Voila !!! The outcome was super delicious. The aroma of the curry forced me to taste it. & oh my god !!! It was so tasty. I just couldn't control myself from eating it.

Please do try it !!! The recipe is simple & also less time consuming.
