Took me back to Sundays when we were at my mamar baari for a year. Sundays then, were murghir jhol had along with Akashbani Kolkata plays - robibarer something.<br /><br />Chicken on Sunday continued when we moved into our own house later.<br /><br />Now we have meat fairly often so I guess my wife and my Sunday tradition would be going out for breakfast. I often follow this with some quality time at the fish market.<br /><br />Health reasons have made mutton slightly rare at our place. I did make some kosha mangsho last weekend, after ages, for guests. So I could completely empathise with the wafting smells of mutton in the background of the pressure cooker's whistle.<br /><br />Alu in mutton is a must. I prefer using oinion paste because one doesn't need oil then<br /><br />KalyanKalyan Karmakarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14552556294198718249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-65538085917016849722009-04-21T00:03:00.000-04:002009-04-21T00:03:00.000-04:00Thanks Sandeepa.
