Kadhai Gosht | How to Make Mutton Kadhai

7:39 AM

Kadhai Gosht is basically cooked and served in a wok called kadhai, but to speed up the process I usually cook in the pressure cooker, really I don't have the patience to cook otherwise. However, I have mentioned the time required while using both the methods of cooking in the recipe below.

Kadhai Gosht is a Mughal dish popular in North India. It uses a special blend of dry roasted spices called the kadhai masala. It's an easy to prepare dish and you can make and store the kadhai masala in advance for instant use thus saving on time. You can make this recipe from dry to semi gravy type and I have opted for the later. It is also the dhaba style Kadhai Gosht
