Actually I about Mutton Nalli (Lamb Marrow Bones) for preparing Nalli Nihari, but when I found out this recipe, I thought of preparing this dish with Mutton Nalli (Lamb Marrow Bones) and few pieces of Mutton. The aroma of curry was fantastic and it tastes delicious. Sesame seeds combined with Mutton was completely different for me, since it was my first time of having this dish.

It goes out with steamed rice, but I would say that it foes our perfect with chapathi and dosa. Give a try, never miss it. Let us move on to the recipe…
