ABOUT Pakistani Bhuna Gosht RECIPE

Pakistani Bhuna Gosht is a mutton preparation very popular in Pakistan and is my heirloom recipe that has been passed to my generation from my great grand mother. Mutton pieces slow cooked in whole spices and chopped onion, ginger garlic is later fried (bhuna) with lots of ghee and garnished with coriander. Pakistani Bhuna Gosht is one such succulent dish that is best enjoyed with Rumali Roti or Naan. The mutton pieces when cooked slowly with whole spices, leaves an aromatic flavor and extremely juicy mutton that makes you crave for more.
