A very very special dish for sharing, ideal for a dinner party centre piece. I experienced this dish in Indian in a top hotel in Mumbai several years ago and I was blown away. After lots of research I created this dish on Boxingday 2011 for super critical family and they just couldn\'t get enough. Beautiful flavour and out of this world! It take a little planning as it requires 48hrs of marinating and at least 6hrs of slow cooking. The end result is out of this world tender meat that melts in your mouth and with authentic Indian flavours. Believe me this is a very exciting dish.
