Lonelywanderer,
Thanks for sharing this wonderful Rajasthani dish. I deseed the chillies so that the flavour remains & the gravy doesnt become too hot.
Many people are unaware of nonvegetarian delicacies of Rajasthan. Royal families are now hosting yearly festival where heirloom recipes are used to dish out food which had remained exclusive.
May be some day you tell us about the Safed Mas.
