Mutton Milk Curry

A simple tasty mutton curry made with milk n very less spices..A good one to serve for kids and adults who need less spicy curry..The addition of milk creates a slight sweet taste to the curry which is too good. I served it with idiyapam n it tasted greatt..

Usually I pressure cook mutton and hardly cook in kadai. But today I did this in kadai, and the mutton was very juicy and tasty. Even I know the plus of open cooking before, but due to hurriness I don't prefer it often. Anyways I suggest for u frnz, whatever recipe u try with mutton, try open cooking once in a while when u hav time..
